I don't have much of a better answer, but we do try to take a project management team approach like getting the right people around the table to be able to be engaged and move the process along. In certain provinces it's easier than in others.
There is a policy in Quebec around reserve creation that's been on the books since 1982. I don't know how rigidly it's enforced, but it requires that the community have 200 members living together, that the ATR be only for the creation of housing and that the land be aligned with the population. There's a formula. Policies like that can create challenges. This is where you would need to speak to the regional folks. I don't know how strictly enforced that policy is, but it is still on the books.
