I would say the pressure also has to come from the communities affected by these decisions. They absolutely have to have a voice at the provincial level. If the federal government is willing to contribute to an agreement but a province refuses, the communities need to apply pressure on the province in order to convey their needs when it comes to these programs.
Will the roadmap afford opportunities for these kinds of agreements with provincial governments? We, on our end, can try to influence decision-making through our studies, regular meetings with community representatives, and field evaluations. We can try to influence the decision-making process, to make the federal and provincial governments understand the importance of their partnership.
