The pope apologizes to native people in Canada for their role in indoctrination schools

[Saltwater60]

What they did to these people is just horrible. I don’t get it and I find native cultures very fascinating. I do not like this pope. I’m Christina but not Catholic. I do not support the Catholic Church in much that they do.

An apology from this pope doesn’t me anything more than a fart in the wind to those people. What the church helped do to native Americans is nothing short of genocide.
