Perhaps the pope can also apologize for the Italian, Spanish and Portuguese inquisitions as well.
@John Browne Yes. In another life.
Yes! Thank you!
@Ryan Lalonde Did you suffer the torture or deliver it?
@John Browne Both, obviously.
@Ontario AtOrion wheres the remains? and where’s the proof these remains were result of anything else other than said communities Elders or some other faction from the community?
The provincial governments controlled the schools and students with βALLβ the religious groups involved, why is the Catholic Church, the only one singled out as the guilty party. Money is the motivation -the healing power,,,,,,
@Gagan Dhaliwal – exaggerations seem to be your only argument point – thousands maybe with all the churches being guilty.
@Leo Delaney why do you think that the Church is having records at the Vatican exactly , because they were not involved …. you know nothing.
@Leo Delaney nah probably more once all the hidden bodies are found.
@Gagan Dhaliwal A Sikh pointing the finger at Catholics?

Both are to blame, government had the policy to take the kids, the church ran the re-education schools.
I apologize to the Pope and i an’t catholic. Canada

How many children have been exhumed and reburied?
With todayβs technology, could they match the childrenβs DNA with living family members?

Keep your kids away from him and his ilk, nothing has changed.
True that
He will laugh at all of you behind closed doors, his apologies arenβt sincere in the least.
Shine the spotlight on the Evil in the Dark Corners
I agree. The spotlight should be on Trudeau and Biden.
Crimes are crimes
Nothing has changed, protect your children. I pray that you don’t fall into the trap π

One request!
Denouncing THE DOCTRINE OF DISCOVERY!!
‘Shall change Nothing! Sad as it is… An effort that may gain some political mouvement while in TRUTH, but a grandure that shall never change anything that their evil has done to memories of past. Why do we even play this game?
How can anyone apologize for actions that were made by others.
My understanding is that they want to meet to apologize and pay compensation for all the churches they burnt down last year.
