Gretta Vosper , minister at West Hill United Church near Toronto. Friends had attended there for years before they moved to my city and were absolutely smitten with her (they now attend a UU congregation). The United Church and the UUs sometimes partner together on social justice and environmental issues in Canada, they are generally a very progressive church.
