住宿学校幸存者的家属说,这像是对原住民脸上又一次重击。
他说罗马教会没有履行财政义务,加拿大不应当支付全部开销,钱应当花在更好的地方,比如语言,文化复兴,反种族主义教育,和支持原住民方面。
Pope Francis' tour came with a minimum $55-milliion price tag for Ottawa
A family member of residential school survivors says the minimum $55-million price tag for Pope's visit to Canada last year feels like another slap in the face for Indigenous people.
"Think of all the money that could have gone to survivors, all of the money that could have gone to healing, all of the money that was rightfully supposed to be given to folks who survived genocide," Michelle Robinson, who is Sahtu Dene, said from Calgary.
Documents obtained by The Canadian Press under freedom of information laws show the federal government spent a minimum of $55,972,683 for the leader of the Roman Catholic Church to visit Canada over six days last July.
。。。。。。。
Robinson added the Catholic Church has not upheld its financial obligations and now has cost Canada millions more through the Pope's visit -- so it should hold the bill.
She said Canada's money would be much better spent on language and culture revitalization, anti-racism training, education and supporting Indigenous people.
"That money absolutely could have been spent in that better way and it wasn't."
