Papal Visit!

[lagatta]

Hey, we're having a Papal Visit! Obviously for regrets and amends for the prisons "residential schools" where Indigenous children were made to unlearn their languages and cultures, and were sometimes physically or sexually abused.

Not that the Cono Sur region Frankie hails from is exempt from such histories of mistreatment...

He's visiting Québec (the city, and the basilica at Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré), Edmonton in the West and Iqauluit in the Far-North. Not Montréal.

I was trying to think of other religious "authorities" who make visits around the world. The only person who comes to mind is the Dalai Lama.

Lucky that he's giving our city a miss.
