These forays into reconciliation are always so one-sided.  The sanctimonious Canadians who share a monarch with England ask the Catholics to apologize... but apologizing never occurs to the Canadians and the Brits for their monarchy's sins.  What sins you say?  The pro-Apartheid penal laws that marginalized and subjugated the Catholic peasantry, particularly in Ireland and Scotland.   The genocide and ethnic cleansing that for centuries victimized the Scots and Irish Catholics.   Where are the offers to tear down the statues of Queen Victoria who presided over Ireland's Famine... never mind her wars to force opium on the Chinese.
