Reconciliation – A Canadian Affair
RECONCILIATION - A Canadian Affair
What is true reconciliation?
The definition of reconciliation in the dictionary is the restoration of friendly relations. But to truly restore peace one must be brave enough to face the truth. This is a story that many Canadians are only partially aware of. It is a story that needs to be acknowledged, heard and understood to come to resolution with the battles that were fought by our ancestral roots and to whom the scars and wounds continue to perpetuate to this day.
