The First Nation, the church signed the covenant back in March
Vancouver's Catholic archbishop says a sacred covenant signed by the diocese and Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc is not a finished document, but a"living dynamic statement of moving to the future."
It was signed on March 30, 2024 on Easter Sunday by Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vancouver and the diocese of Kamloops. The Kamloops Indian Residential School was one of five schools that existed within the boundaries of the archdiocese of Vancouver. "It's about relationship. It's also about making some meaningful steps towards healing and we can't do that alone.
Casimir pointed to Section 28 when Pope Francis visited Alberta to meet with First Nation, Métis and Inuit communities and"asked for forgiveness for the evil committed by the Christians against Indigenous peoples." He acknowledged the suffering and abuse endured by Indigenous children in residential schools.
