Business of Supply  Mr. Speaker, the member across the way said it right. I like that she said we are on the path toward healing.

Business of Supply  Madam Speaker, I would like to go to the truth and reconciliation report. Recommendation 58 states: We call upon the Pope to issue an apology to Survivors, their families, and communities for the Roman Catholic Church’s role in the spiritual, cultural, emotional, physical, and
