The fact that ACNA has been invited to have an observer at the Primates 
Meeting might be seen as giving them hope, but I am not sure how 
well-founded that hope would be.  I think being in communion with 
Canterbury would need to go through the C/E General Synod, and I would 
expect a lot of opposition there. I would also expect there to be a 
requirement to recogbize TEC as legitimately part of the Anglican 
Communion and the real continuing Anglican entity in the USA, and the 
same for the Anglican Church inb Canada. Would they sign up to that?
