The holy and uncorrupted arm of an ancient saint is crossing the country in a two-week tour that began this week in Ottawa and Quebec City. The arm will also spend a day at St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia. “That’s what St. Francis was in his day. After he died in 1552, St. Francis’s uncorrupted body was returned to Goa, where it remains 465 years later. The arm will travel between cities in a padded duffel bag in a seat of its own on Air Canada.
