總結:Many Canadians, including the leadership of the mainline churches, are still trying to come to grips with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) and its Calls to Action as they rethink the colonial foundation of both the Canadian state and the churches. Given the role of Canadian mainline Christianity and the churches in this history, the work of unmasking the colonial theology that sustained the “evangelizing and civilizing” foundational projects of the state and the violence they produced becomes an urgent theological task that is yet to be tackled seriously. With a primary focus on the Catholic context, after a brief historical survey this article considers some of the key theological questions inspired by Indigenous voices and proposals that theology after the TRC can no longer ignore.
