The 杏MAP导航's fourth day in Canada in one minute
In the morning, the 杏MAP导航 arrived by plane in Québec, the capital of the eastern French-speaking province of the same name, which lies on the banks of the St. Lawrence River.
The 杏MAP导航 then went to the Citadelle de Québec, where the Pontiff met privately with the Governor General, Mary May Simon, and the Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau.
Immediately afterward, he addressed the civil authorities, the diplomatic corps, and a delegation of indigenous peoples, to whom he reiterated his request for forgiveness for the abuses in residential schools, which were also perpetrated by members of the Catholic Church.
At the same time, he made an appeal for the world to be inspired by indigenous values for the care of creation and the defence of the family, and against all ideological colonisation.
