I am just glad the pope has been picked so I can go back to not having to hear about him in my day to day life.

It looks like Benedict XVI never made a Papal trip to Canada. Let's see if Pope Francis I will take a Papal trip to Vancouver anytime soon.
Who remembers and who attended the mass at Holy Rosary and BC Place when Pope John Paul II took a Papal trip to Vancouver on September 18, 1984?

In the end, it was not an American or a Canadian, but rather Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina. The first non-European pope in the modern era.
And his papal name will be Pope Francis I.
Revisiting this dozen-year old thread in light of the new Papal election, for the first time ever there will be an American being a Pope as Chicago-born Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost will be the next Pope.
