Finance Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, pictured in a Hill scrum.

On March 13, Pope Francis will observe the 10th anniversary of his election to the papacy. In that decade, he has reached outward to a fractured world and inward to a fractured church. Seldom in the modern history of the Catholic Church has a pope been plunged into both external and internal crises at the same time. Photograph courtesy Flickr/Commons Wikimedia

A series of statues in Dublin, titled 'Famine' by Norma Smurfit. The Great Irish Famine of 1845-1851 was a product of imperial rule in Ireland. It provoked a massive exodus of native Irish. In 1847, more than 106,000 fled to Canada, 20 per cent of whom died en route. They were refugees, not immigrants.
