I'm not here to make recommendations.

However, the bill contains provisions enabling the minister to enter into negotiations with the provinces and territories, or even directing the minister to do so. This avenue is probably more promising, in my opinion. Obviously, we know when negotiations start, but we don't know how successful they are, or what kind of agreement they lead to, if any.
