POPE FRANCIS AND THE MAPLE TREES

POPE FRANCIS AND THE MAPLE TREES - 

By Bernard Bujold - 

Pope Francis gave a speech in Quebec City on Wednesday, July 27, 2022 on the future of the planet; the importance of finding ways to end wars in the world; his admiration for the Canadian maple tree and its symbolism. At the end, he asked for forgiveness for the residential schools for which he blamed the governments of the day and some Christians and local churches. 

A speech worthy of a great humanist, but which did not seem to satisfy the First Nations leaders who would have preferred a unique perspective on the residential school affair.
