The Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister’s comments come after the Vatican announced last week that Pope Francis would reschedule an upcoming trip to Africa to avoid interrupting therapy he is undergoing for his knee
Crown-Indigenous Relations Minister Marc Miller says Pope Francis’s upcoming trip to Canada remains unchanged at the moment, but the pontiff’s health is an “extreme concern.”
His trip to the Congo had been scheduled to take place from July 2 to July 7, just weeks before he is set to travel to Canada to deliver a long-awaited apology to Indigenous people for the Catholic Church’s role in running residential schools. Pope Francis apologized to First Nations, Inuit and Metis delegates who travelled to the Vatican earlier in the year but survivors hope to see him deliver an apology on Canadian soil.
