What surfaced through that were five thematic areas that are challenging for reserve creation. Duty to consult takes time. You need to engage the nations, and that can go well, but sometimes it doesn't go very well. With municipal service agreements, you need to have municipalities willing to provide the services on the reserve that's been created. That is a negotiation process. Third party interest ends up being quite a hurdle.
We've really focused on the implementation side on what we can do on each of those things to try and improve that process. We've entered into a consultation protocol with the Manitoba Métis Federation to try and help us smooth the way in Manitoba a little bit. We're looking at piloting some conditions that exist under legislation that we think we can do without policy change to transition instruments. We're looking at that without having to renegotiate them. Then we're partnering with the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and first nations organizations to raise the profile of urban reserve creation and what that might look like.
On the implementation side, that's where our focus has been.
