Many view the Pope’s apology tour as an important step in promoting reconciliation between the Church and First Nations people and other only see a small step in need of much more. However it is viewed, the tour is historic and more than likely will lead to greater dialogue between institutions and the the victims of those institutions that has been a very long time coming. Eventually, the conversation and actions may get to a point that truly heals old wounds but that may take another century.
