How was the papal's visit viewed by Canada's Indigenous community
About this episode
The Papal visit to Canada was seen by many as an important step on the path to reconciliation.

Doug Cuthand, Indigenous affairs columnist for the Saskatoon StarPhoenix and Regina Leader-Post joins Dave Breakenridge to discuss the significance of the visit, what the Church needs to do now, and what role the federal government has to play going forward.
