The papal (new pope) election will be in March 2013. The Voters should be under 80 years age only. The new pope Will be named Pope name XVII,
Popes have traditionally been chosen at the conclave, a secret meeting of the College of Cardinals inside the Sistine Chapel. All cardinals younger than 80 can take part, a number reportedly around 117 or 118 at the moment.
"One name much closer to home is Cardinal Marc Ouelett, who was the cardinal archbishop of Quebec City before leaving within the last year or two for a position in the Vatican. He's quite charismatic, very well read, very well liked, very well known, so he certainly has a chance at election.”
