During Apostolic Journey to Canada, Pope Francis participates in the Lac Ste. Anne Pilgrimage, which tens of thousands of Indigenous people undertake each year. The UN Special Rapporteur on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, José Francisco Calí Tzay, has welcomed the Vatican's recent rejection of the 'Doctrine of Discovery' and has expressed hope that other governments would follow the Holy See's lead, reported www.un.org.

In the article, the UN official commended the Vatican’s recognition of the harmful effects of colonization, including the pain the Indigenous Peoples have suffered, and welcomed Pope Francis’ exhortation to promote mutual respect and dialogue, and to abandon the colonizing mentality. The document stated that the “'Doctrine of Discovery' is not a part of the teaching of the Catholic Church.”
