Papal Apology, Truth & Reconciliation

The Kamloops mass graves tragedy / story was pulled off the shelf in May 2021 and presented to Canadians with an exaggerated level of urgency to pave the way for the Papal Apology.

Because of the BC Supreme Court’s ruling in Cowichan Tribes v. Canada (Attorney General) earlier this year, I should unpack why I think the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops relented on their reluctance and made a deal with the government of the day to get the long-awaited apology from the Pope at that moment. I’ve mentioned this on social media over the last couple of years, as I slowly piece together my own legal nightmare with the Diocese of Peterborough and watch public events unfold.
