The Havana Times - A few months earlier Pope Francis returned to the Vatican following an eye-opening journey to Canada that made it evident the role played by Canada's Catholic Church and the genocide that was committed against Indigenous peoples living in the country
He was clearly shocked by the magnitude of the violence that resulted in the death of thousands of children. It was a tragedy that was beyond comprehension. He used the term "genocide" not within Canada but when he returned to his home country.
When he visited Canada He made an "apology" in the wake of the horrible crime he committed but did not talk about compensation within the parameters of the country or institution that is super rich which he is the president
My thoughts were that talk is cheap and is much more affordable than actually doing the right thing within the limits of realistic methods to at the very least pay the descendants of victims in a fair and equitable manner.
However, that, and the countless hundreds of children who are sexually abused around the world, at the hands of Catholic priests, isn't the primary reason for my current writing.

It's entirely different and is about what's currently happening in a tiny, impoverished nation located in Central America, Nicaragua.
It is a horrific crime and the repression of the family dictatorship against an entire population and this includes Catholic bishops and priests of the Church who speak out in support of the weak people.
