And why He's here,
Thousands of pilgrims have descended on the G.T.A. to begin their spiritual journey. And there’s many, many more to come.

Up to 200,000 young people from over 150 countries are uniting under our very eyes, celebrating their faith and taking in a huge mass with the Pope. It’s all part of World Youth Day, the biggest gathering ever to hit the city of Toronto.

Toronto has been doing a lot of preparation, as traffic will be a nightmare, as well as beautification.
 
All the major hospitals on the travel routes go on high alert as soon as he get's within radius.
 
They just said on the news that there are medical personnel on the helicopter with him. :ek: WOW!
 
I heard on the radio that while he is vacationing they will have the most technologically advanced equipment to preven mosquitos all over the island. Let's hope the machines aren't running windows or he's doomed! ;)
 
Chretien is the only person I know with two second languages and no first language.

I'm NOT going into Toronto this week. I have no wish to see the pope or get a kiss from him. And this World Youth Day is full of shit.
 
Why do we need a World Youth Day? For the Catholics to get more boys into one place at once? What is the purpose of this day? Just more socialist days of doing nothing. I don't give a shit for grandparents day (I don't need the government to regulate a special day for my grandparents), environment day, and recently Father's Day and Mother's Day. It is JUST MONEY MAKING SCHEMES. If someone needs these special days to remember something, he has serious problems.
 
i believe he made the trip all over to the continent just to make his visit to Mexico, he will declare Juan Diego as a Saint.
