POPE BENEDICT IS GETTING READY TO STEP DOWN TOMORROW.
AN ESTIMATED CROWD OF 150-THOUSAND JAMMED ST. PETER'S SQUARE AT THE VATICAN TODAY, AS THE AILING PONTIFF PRESIDED OVER HIS FINAL GENERAL AUDIENCE.
AN EXPERT ON THE VATICAN'S HISTORY
SAYS BENEDICT'S RESIGNATION COULD OPEN THE DOOR TO A NEW POPE FROM CANADA, CARDINAL MARC OULETTE.
Robert Dennis:
"It's going to be a very exciting time and particularly there is a cardinal in the mix from Canada, Cardinal Mark. He likely won't be the first choice, but he may well be the last choice and could be a historic moment for the Canadian church."
