Pope Francis in Canada: Maskwacis Apology

Synopsis:

Pope Francis’ first stop on his Canadian pilgrimage of penance was in Maskwacis, Alberta, home of the former Ermineskin residential school – one of the biggest in Canada. For years, the call for an apology here went unanswered. Now after decades of work by Indigenous peoples and a national reckoning over the horrors of residential schools, Pope Francis appears before survivors and their families for the first apology.
