In a statement on the official verified Twitter account of Pope Francis, the head of the Roman Catholic Church voiced sympathy for people affected by residential schools, but stopped short of offering an apology for the church’s role in the system and refrained from making commitments to help people affected. “I join the Canadian bishops and the whole Catholic Church in Canada in expressing my closeness to the Canadian people, who have been traumatised by shocking [sic] discovery of the remains of two hundred and fifteen children, pupils at the Kamloops Indian Residential School,” reads the statement. “These difficult times are a strong call for everyone to turn away from the colonial model and walk side by side in dialogue, mutual respect and recognition of the rights and cultural values of all the daughters and sons of Canada.”
