FYI on EWTN live. A Mass will be televised in a short while. I am watching it as I type.

The pope's Canadian hosts had planned to lower him from his plane to the tarmac, but Pope John Paul decided instead to walk down the plane's stairs, moving very slowly and held tightly by an aide.

This was amazing to watch (it was on FOXNews.)

Another touching scene was a young girl, aged 8-10? (hard to tell) who greeted the Pope. He then reached out and pulled her face toward him and kissed her on the cheek. As she walked away from the platform she was crying. Then got hugged by her mother -- even I had tears in my eyes.

The Cardinal of Toronto is starting the Mass. I think they said 'Ambrosia'. Anyone know what his name is for sure?
