Sitting on the shores of the St. Lawrence River and midway between Montreal and Quebec, Cap de la Madeleine is a place of peace and tranquillity, serenity and beauty. Its history goes back to 1634 when the area was first settled. The following year the first Jesuit Missionaries arrived to serve the settlers of the new village. The first little timber chapel was built here in 1659 on a small piece of land known as 'Blessed Mary's fief'. 5 years later it was to become the first of Canada's Catholic churches to be dedicated as a Confraternity of the Holy Rosary, a very new form of prayerful devotion to Our Lady at that time.

The answer depends upon whether the Catholic man's first marriage was canonically valid, and, if so, whether he has been granted an annulment.

In most cases, such a marriage would not require an annulment for a second marriage in the Church to take place.
