The temple's website (
visit link) informs us about their teacher:
"VEN. LAMA TENZIN KALSANG was born in the small town of Kenora, Ontario, Canada in 1939. She acquired a B.A. from Wilfred Laurier University with a major in Religion and Culture.
"Gen-la" (Venerable Teacher) grew up with strong devotion to Jesus which evolved, through an intense psychological and spiritual transformation, into an even deeper devotion to The Buddha. Unofficially, she considers herself to be an Interfaith person, appreciating the value in all religions.
Gen-la was ordained in India by HIS HOLINESS THE 14th DALAI LAMA and ordained by MASTER HSING YUN. She is a fully ordained Tibetan Buddhist Nun and she is a devoted disciple of HIS HOLINESS THE DALAI LAMA."
