As a country our present government is legally responsible for what happened in the past, it is only morally responsible for its own actions or lack thereof.

As living citizens of an established democracy we're responsible for all of it, right now. As I said there's no limited liability.

Drive what fricken things off a cliff?
The Department of Indian Affairs and DFO in that order would be a nice start but they're more like smaller parts of my broader use of the term institutions which refers to things like national governments.  I'm quite serious, burn the goddamn thing to the ground and start from scratch if it refuses to be reformed. The Catholic Church is so ancient and big it almost counts as an institution on par with the United Nation's but of even vaster influence over time and space not to mention sheer numbers of human beings.

As for the Catholic Church, forget reforming it, move straight to burning it to the ground. There's a culture that needs cancelled toot suite.

Recall what I said about Canada's 1st Nations being given preeminent positions within our foreign affairs department?  I'm thrilled to see Canada's 1st Nations demanding that the Pope apologize not only to them but to the entire world for the suffering the institution he's responsible for driving caused virtually every indigenous people that ever ran afoul of it.  I doubt a 1st Nations dominated Foreign Affairs Department would be too sympathetic to maintaining Canada's ties with dictator either. 

Of course it should also be mentioned that many colonizing nations took their cues and instructions from Roman Catholic Church on how to spread and force it's values throughout the world.
