There is, it would be proper planning in 1950 to exclude negotiating with Tsu Tina from original planning. The beaurocrat who thought it would be a good idea to leave he ring road in the hands of a 3rd party should have his/her retirement home egged for stupidity.

If there is a better alternative no one has has brought it forward unless you consider Tsu Tina and thats likely not a viable alternative. Its hard to imagine that for relatively the same money and land offered that a different mayor could be the tipping point on an issue that at its heart was the mistrust of the Federal Government by the Tsu Tina to hand over land after the cash deal was completed.

Stelmach was many things, but now that he is gone the Tsu Tina arent going to find a government more willing to work to get this done. We are going back to the gladiator arenas when it comes to negotiating with this province. No more bigger carrot negotiating.
