Why this survivor quit the Pope's sex abuse commission in frustration - Home | As It Happens | CBC Radio

'"The work the commission was trying to do is to protect children from abuse, the kind of abuse I suffered myself," Marie Collins told As It Happens guest host Helen Mann. '

'Saunders and Collins both threatened to resign as long ago as February 2015 unless bishops were made more accountable over cover-ups of rampant sexual abuse or failing to prevent it. '

'Collins said the curia regularly ignored or dismissed recommendations from the commission, even when they were backed by Pope Francis. '

'The Vatican said the Pope had accepted her resignation "with deep appreciation for her work on behalf of the victims/survivors of clergy abuse". '

'Asked why she thinks the commission has been met with such resistance, Collins suggested the Vatican may see its members as "outsiders."'
