I'm sure others have said this, but my guess is that Huonder will consecrate any new bishops alone--the other SSPX bishops will not be co-consecrators--so that as the valid bishops and priests of the SSPX die, the only priests of the SSPX that will be left will be priests whose orders stem strictly from the New Rite. In the end, the SSPX will have all the ceremonies but none of the sacraments.

But wouldn't that be uncanonical? I'm assuming that the four SSPX bishops consecrated in 1988 were only consecrated by two bishops, not three, simply due to a third bishop not being available.

It would be awfully hard to justify consecrating without three bishops, if three bishops were indeed available, as they are in the SSPX at this time. Here's what the Catholic Encyclopedia says:

Founded in 2006, CathInfo is the largest English-language forum dedicated to fostering community and discussion among the Traditional Catholic remnant, scattered throughout the world, who strive to take the Faith seriously and learn the truth about all things sacred and secular.

CathInfo provides information, news, and discussion, as well as a place to meet fellow Traditional Catholics for friendship and support in our struggles with the Modern World.

We welcome the largest possible number of faithful Traditional Catholics of good will, from all backgrounds and walks of life, who are able to coexist in the same virtual space with those holding a wide variety of viewpoints on the Crisis in the Church, which began around 1965 with Vatican II.

CathInfo embodies the maxim: "in necessariis unitas, in dubiis libertas, in omnibus caritas." which translates: "In necessary things unity, in doubtful things liberty, in all things charity."

Therefore we allow as much free discussion as possible, and moderate posts only rarely. Think "free speech" minus anything sinful.

CathInfo is the de-facto discussion headquarters for the SSPX Resistance, which it officially supports.
Traditional Catholics worldwide have made us the #1 forum for SSPX Resistance news and discussion in the English-speaking world.
