Survivors of Canada’s residential schools to seek apology from Pope Francis
IndependentNOV 2021
This settlement is a victory that marks the end of years of advocacy and negotiations. It will help address the ongoing trauma and legacy of Indigenous Canadians and give them the compensation they deserve.
While this is certainly good news, it's too soon to celebrate: the government has a history of exchanging goodwill words without following through with action. This settlement hasn't yet received final approval, and its implementation may prove to be more difficult than anticipated.
