Prime
Minister Stephen Harper is being urged to take advantage of an audience
with Pope Francis this week to seek a formal apology for the role the

NDP Leader Tom Mulcair says the timing of Harper's visit to the Vatican is fortuitous, coming just one week after the Truth and Reconciliation Commission called on the pope to travel to Canada to issue an apology.
