Marie Marguerite d'Youville After a lifetime of helping the poor in Quebec, a century of lobbying on her behalf in Rome, and two miracles, Marie Marguerite d'Youville is officially a saint. More than 200 years after her death, the founder of Montreal's Sisters of Charity - the "Grey Nuns" - is canonized by Pope John Paul II. In this interview recorded shortly before the canonization, Grey Nuns historian Sister Estelle Mitchell describes the remarkable life and legacy of this "mother of the poor."
