History
All Syro-Malabar Catholics in Canada belong to the Eparchy of Mississauga, whose episcopal seat is St. Alphonsa Cathedral in the episcopal see of Mississauga. Rather than belonging to any ecclesiastical province, the eparchy is immediately subject to the Holy See and depends on the Dicastery for the Oriental Churches.
