It is the process by which a person is declared a saint. Canonization requires proof of at least one miracle attributable to the saint. The process is performed only in Rome. The Catholic Church aslo has the power to declare a deceased person a saint. The glorification of a saint is said to be God's choice. God chooses whether to perform the miracles or not.
