After apology in Alberta, First Nations want Pope to say sorry on Quebec soil
Earlier this year, the community announced it would search for unmarked graves at the sites of five residential schools that operated beginning in the 1930s on Fort George Island, in northern Quebec.
The church should also be actively involved in providing support for residential school survivors and the children and grandchildren of survivors. “It’s a multi-generational recovery; it’s not a one-step process,” Gull-Masty said. “Survivors, no matter who and where, are wanting to hear the apology,” Picard said. “So, I would say that’s something on the minds of survivors in Quebec City as well.”One Innu elder who attended a residential school during her youth said that accepting the pope’s forgiveness might be difficult for many survivors. Jeannette Vollant said in a recent interview she believes other actions from the church need to follow.
