April 4: ‘Good on the Pope … now is he going to come up with the millions of dollars in reparations?’ The Pope apologizes to Indigenous delegation, plus other letters to the editor
: I cannot believe the cruelty of making the Indigenous delegation wait until the last day of their visit for the apology they desired. Every day of their visit, we read of yet another group having a long meeting with the Pope in which the words they needed to hear were not quite said.
If he was planning to do it, why not announce in advance that he would issue an apology on the last day? Delegates would have been able to enjoy their visit in anticipation, instead of the dread they must have felt every day it was withheld.Good on the Pope for the long-awaited apology. Now is he going to come up with the millions of dollars in reparations?
