Yeah the church sucks, but again the issue is that Canadians didn’t care 150 years ago, or 100 years ago, or 50 years ago, or 10 years ago or 5 years ago and won’t care 1 year from now.
When is the last time anyone in Canada voted on religious issues. I mean most Canadians didn’t know these dead kids existed even though it’s been very public since 2015 and well known before hand if you cared to pay attention. This non payment problem started in 2005 and the court case people are talking about is in 2012. And now people care? There was no Calgarypuck thread on it then because no one cared. Not Catholics, Not Canadians.
But no let’s blame the church and it’s parishioners so we can all feel better. A parishioner of the Catholic Church has no more responsibility than any other Canadian. And every Canadian has failed to make this an issue and every Canadian has contributed to the racism against indigenous people.
So when you blame Catholics and not the institution because they continue to fund and go to church well that to me reeks of deflection and hypocrisy when in general Canadians dont care and in October the treatment of Indigenous people won’t matter at all when we are electing a government.
