Martin William Currie (born December 11, 1943) is a Roman Catholic prelate. He is currently serving as the head of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of St. John's, Newfoundland. Until March 1, 2011, when Pope Benedict XVI accepted his resignation as Bishop there, he was the Bishop of Grand Falls.
Archbishop Currie was born in Marinette, a small village near Sheet Harbour, Nova Scotia. His paternal family is of Scottish origin and has connections to the MacDonald and MacPherson clans.
After studying at St. Francis Xavier University and at Holy Heart Seminary in Halifax (now part of the Atlantic School of Theology), Currie was ordained priest in 1968. For the next 30 years, Martin Currie served the church in a variety of functions. From 1975 to 1980, he was a missionary and parish priest in Chiclayo, Peru. In 1992, he became vicar general of the Archdiocese of Halifax. In 1998, he was diocesan administrator of the Archdiocese.
In 2001 Martin William Currie became a bishop: He was first appointed to the See of Grand Falls. From September 2006 to May 2007 he served concurrently as Apostolic Administrator of the Diocese of Saint John, New Brunswick. Pope Benedict XVI appointed him Archbishop of St. John's in October 2007. He was installed in his Archdiocese on November 30, 2007 and received the pallium of metropolitan bishops on June 29, 2008. In spite of his new and higher office, Archbishop Curie continued to exercise his functions as Bishop of Grand Falls until his retirement as Bishop there on Tuesday, March 1, 2011, when Auxiliary Bishop (assistant bishop) Robert Anthony Daniels of the Roman Catholic Diocese of London, Ontario, Canada, was selected by the Pope to take his place there.

Currie (Scottish Gaelic: Currach) is a suburb of Edinburgh, Scotland, situated 7 miles south west of the city centre. A former village within the County of Midlothian, it lies to the south west of the city, between Juniper Green (NE) and Balerno (SW) on the Lanark Road. Administratively, Currie falls within the jurisdiction of the City of Edinburgh Council. It gives its name to a civil parish.
In 2001 the population of Currie was 8,550 and it contained 3,454 houses.
There is no accepted derivation of the name Currie but it is possibly from the Scottish Gaelic word curagh/curragh, a wet or boggy plain, or from the Brythonic word curi, a dell or hollow. The neighbouring suburb of Balerno derives its name from Scottish Gaelic, whilst the nearby Pentland Hills derive their name from Brythonic, so either is possible.
The earliest record of a settlement in the Currie area is a Bronze Age razor (1800 BC) found at Kinleith Mill and the stone cists (500 BC) at Duncan's Belt and Blinkbonny. There are a few mentions of this area in mediaeval and early modern documents. One of the first is when Robert of Kildeleith became Chancellor of Scotland in 1249. Kildeleith means Chapel by the Leith, and survives today as Kinleith. Robert the Bruce gave Riccarton as a wedding present in 1315 and in 1392 the land passed to the family of Bishop Wardlaw. In 1612 the land went to Ludovic Craig, a Senator of the College of Justice. In 1818 it passed to the female line and became the property of the Gibson-Craigs.

Martin
All the insults and the names
The kicks, the tricks, the vicious games
To make a young man reach his prime
They say he's weak, they say he's snapped
A man who's scared, a man who's trapped
When all a young man needs is time
Let them try, with the thrill of the pack
Hold your breath till the day he gets back!
Enough, no more, I don't give a damn
Why stay, what for?
I know who I am
A man above the lie that they live
A man who'll love when he's ready to give
But I'll come back one day, after ten years away
And they'll stop and they'll say
Look! Look!
Look, it's Martin Guerre
We need him here, no need to fear, never despair
Yes! It's Martin Guerre
Back home at last, those from the past better beware
Strides through the town
Laughs, waves them away
They all think he must be the same
But by heaven they're sure to see there's more to Martin Guerre
Than a name
(Pierre appears)
And that bastard, Pierre
Holds my life in his hand
He's no uncle of mine
He can have all my land
The land he sold me for
May God condemn his soul to hell
And all of Artigat as well...
(the villagers appear, along with a man with his back
to the audience. Martin points at him.)
Look! It's Martin Guerre
Standing so brave, back from the grave, who else would dare
Yes! It's Martin Guerre
Back from the war, not like before
Of this I swear
He's seen it all, he's travelled the land
And look! Look what he became
And by heaven they're sure to see there's more to Martin Guerre
Just look, look at what he became
By heaven they're sure to see there's more to Martin Guerre
Than a name!
