Wikipedia's article on the United Church of Canada, read directly for this pass, which states the church was formed on 10 June 1925 by the union of the Methodist Church (Canada), the Congregational Union of Canada, roughly two thirds of the Presbyterian Church in Canada and the Association of Local Union Churches, under an Act of Parliament passed 27 June 1924, with George C. Pidgeon, a pro-union Presbyterian moderator, elected the united church's first Moderator.
