Pope Francis repeated his penitent tone as he delivered mass in Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, Quebec, offering more remorse over the pain inflicted on Indigenous peoples by the Catholic Church's residential schools. Mike Armstrong has reaction from inside and outside the church.

Indigenous communities are also calling on the Pope to rescind the Doctrine of Discovery, a 15th-century Catholic Church pronouncement used to justify colonialism. Neetu Garcha delves into its devastating impact then and now.

And Mohawk journalist and human rights leader Kenneth Deer believes the pontiff's apology is not enough and there's more work to be done. Jeff Semple spoke with Deer to hear why, and about the demands on the Church to rescind the Doctrine of Discovery.

Plus, Emile-Antoine Roy Sirois, a 31-year-old Quebec man, died fighting for Ukraine after being ambushed by a Russian tank, becoming the first Canadian fighter confirmed killed in the war. In a Global News exclusive, Crystal Goomansingh speaks with the comrades who fought alongside him and hears their heartfelt messages to his family back home.

The U.S. is hoping to secure the freedom of two Americans detained in Russia— American basketball star Brittney Griner and former Marine Paul Whelan—by releasing convicted Viktor Bout, a Russian arms dealer known as the 'Merchant of Death.' Jennifer Johnson looks at how Moscow is responding to the potential prisoner swap.

And more survivors of abuse in hockey are speaking out over the sport's toxicity, as parliamentary hearings bring more shocking testimony over Hockey Canada's decades of sexual assault settlements. As Abigail Bimman reports, victims remain unimpressed by the promises of change.
