A new era of monarchy has renewed conversations about the future of the Crown and Indigenous peoples.
Assembly of First Nations National Chief RoseAnne Archibald said the Crown must apologize for its role in settlement and residential schools run by the Anglican Church.
“We talked about it briefly and he was very empathetic,” she told Joyce Napier on CTV News Channel’s Power Play Friday.
Archibald met the king during his three-day trip to Canada in May. During this trip, he spoke of the need to “come to terms with the darker and more difficult aspects of the past: to recognize, to reconcile and to strive to do better”.
Archibald told Power Play that she thinks King Charles III has “a real honesty to want to be part of the solutions”.
