Best Answer

No, Pius XII has not been canonized. He is now Venerable Pius XII. He still needs to be beatified and then canonized. He was the victim of a disinformation campaign waged against his reputation by the USSR which claimed he was a Nazi sympathizer and did little to help Holocaust victims. These lies have delayed his canonization. He should have been declared a saint decades ago.
