Will they use it to make the smoke for the next pope… because ain’t no one reading that tome

I’m with PierreB Fortin on this one. Why does he even get to meet the pope? He’s just a regular civilian at this point. Also, why would the pope care about a book called “Retrouver Montréal”?

I’m assuming he was able to meet him because he is in charge of raising money for his visit?
For fun, I visited the printers of “Retrouver Montreal”, and they offer a preview of the first 30 pages or so. The preamble (that he wrote) is a narcissistic rambling piece where 75% of the sentences start with or include “je”. The man is a walking billboard for himself.

In other Pope items that I found amusing: Gilles Proulx works himself into a snit over Gabriel Nadeau‑Dubois’ choice not to attend the Pope’s mass.
I haven’t been doing a lot of Pope links this week, and other things have been quiet. I recognize that the visit has been important to many, given his attempt to atone for wrongs meted out to Indigenous people, but that’s a huge topic that goes beyond this blog’s purview.

Typical of Denny. He thinks he’s a bigshot.

He really is a caricature of himself.

Someone please tell Gilles Proulx that QC is a secular society. I mean they passed a bill recently didn’t they? :p

Gilles is upset because society has left him in the dust and the turnout for the Pope was smaller than an opening act at Osheaga.

The Pope should have been arrested for all the damage that his terror organization has done to people on this continent. Then, all the Roman Catholic lands in Canada should be ceded to First Nations and any land income transfered to them.
Finally, Denis Coderre should become the next pope, a kind of “Donald Trump pope” to finish off the organization’s reputation.
(constructive criticism)
