Thousands of Indigenous people are expected to converge Monday on the small Alberta prairie community of Maskwacis to hear a long-awaited apology from Pope Francis.

Francis is scheduled to arrive Monday morning at the site of the former Ermineskin Indian Residential School, where he is expected to apologize for generations of abuse and cultural suppression at Catholic residential schools across Canada.

Francis is expected to speak at 10 a.m. MT. You can watch his remarks here. 

A number of live stream interpretation feeds, including in 12 Indigenous languages and American Sign Language, will be available on the official website of the Pope’s visit.
