Winnipeg (Canada) – In the Canadian city of Winnipeg, the anger is growing over the discovery of the remains of hundreds of children in unmarked graves at former indigenous schools. It is said that the children in the graves were local tribal and they had died during the forced conversions. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had appealed to Pope Francis to apologise. Under these circumstances, enraged Canadians pulled down the statues of Queen Victoria and Elizabeth II.
