With Pope Francis set to embark on a six-day "penitential" visit to Canada this Sunday, Indigenous people say they hope the pontiff goes beyond delivering a simple apology.
"No minimizing, no qualifying, but, 'Here's what we did, in terms of the people on the ground in residential schools,'" she told CTV's Your Morning on Friday. "It's just a beginning. This announcement is just a beginning, understanding each other," he told CTV News on Thursday. . In 2006, Catholic dioceses in Canada agreed to use their "best efforts" to fundraise $25 million for residential school survivors, but ended up raising less than $4 million., which Palameter says the Church needs to revoke. Originating from statements from the Pope in teh 1400s, the doctrine gave legal and moral justification during the "Age of Discovery" to legitimize European colonial land claims outside of Europe.
Indigenous suffered a lot. Why Government did not help them. So many children buried & after 100 years found out. Is it not a shame for all of us. We all must apologize to them including Queen. Why pope only. What ever happened to those children that is all Government’s fault🙏❤️
respected pope is holy soul. Why people want him to apologize for what? He did not do any thing wrong. 100 years ago people did crime why Government was sleeping. Government & Queen must apologies not pope.Britishers did killing in india Why she doesn’t apologize to india?❤️🙏
Hypocrites, what they are doing for the first Nation people? How many indigenous woman and man had been killed in Canada.
Stop apologizing already! I'm not even Catholic, but this has gone on for long enough..
Like groveling and self flagellation?
First of all I don't agree with an apology for something that someone else did years ago. Promise corrections and help. That should be all.
Indigenous were taken out of poverty and given good lives
Hoping for some.... Monetary... Compensation? 😯😲
So apparently murder does pay!
Why are we broke Canadians paying 35mil for the pope to come here and apologize in person for murdering our young children? And then the church is requesting donations along the route!$%^&*
Only the money matters.....
By going “ beyond apology”, is that indigenous for “bring cheque”😂
Money money money
so they want MORE money! 🙄
Goes beyond where. This is silly.
Show me the money!
Tax the church now! Hold them accountable for their atrocities, but make them pay their fair share of taxes too!
AKA 🤑🤑🤑🤑
Oz never did give nothin' to the tin man that he didn't already have. Re: Indigenous people hope Pope Francis goes beyond apology after visit to Canada
Trudeau absolved any wrong doing of the church and has given them amnesty. They owe canadians nothing because of Trudeau
What else do they want? he could buy the next round of beer
Don't count on it. He's just doing it as lip service to keep the Catholic church happy. Nothing will be done about it
He will never apologize.
Don’t worry, he won’t. This is less than the bare minimum.
So only money will do? The government has given out billions of dollars where did all that money went to? I thought apologizing was all they wanted and looking forward to so they want the icing on the cake too?
“Dear god, please don’t make me have to sell a painting”
Apology wouldn't help the indigenous abused to heal, that is magic thinking! What they want it money , money is their best therapy ! They just can't admit it in public
He has no business in this country ! He can stay in his own country forever
💰 💰💰💰💰
like cough up the RCC gold to pay survivors of all your abuse. patriarchal pederast
No doubt they’re hoping he’ll be handing out cash…
If hope is your only thing, you’re going to be SOL. He’ll never expose the church to lawsuits or financial obligations, it’s not gods will.
The Vatican is one of the most wealthy and secretive regimes in our world. They will always protect their religious regime and never compensate for their mistakes. Why Canada is paying for the Vatican’s security and travel expenses for an apology is beyond me.
My mom hated convent and I think she should be compensated.
I cant stand R-C church and what they have done in past, but what more needs to be done? What about those churches some radical indigenous burned?
A gift card?
'Goes beyond '
Going beyond... Meaning exactly how much I am not saying all are driven by monetary compensation; but there's no denying that's what the majority of them are after.
Always looking for money Get a job!!
Isn't apologizing taking blame?
Don't need to apologize. Mass grave hoax.
People still believe in this God heaven and hell crap in 2022 ? They need to go back and read some of the bible that is really weird stuff . Look at the wealth of these religious organizations and the criminal activities they covered up all in the name of some make believe God ?
Who cares, we have bigger problems
What do they want? For him to suck dick?
It will never be enough. Time to cut bait
You know. With the amount it’s costing us to bring him here we could’ve brought some indigenous communities clean drinking water and better living conditions. Priorities
In other words, there's never going to be 'enough' for some people.
he won't
You mean , open his wallet ? That’s what it’s all about , isn’t it.
Not happening
No, we don’t care what this geezer has to say. Just let us be Canadians and stop the dumb land acknowledgements
It was the corrupt government that did residential schools. The same corrupt government that are taking our rights away now
To what? The cheque book?
Don’t care hope he changes his plans and stays home
