And Ric McIver who is now trasportation minister already has a rapport with the Tsuu T'ina and has said he is working on negotiations.

If Mclver gets this done, he won’t have done anything different than his predecessors, other than being in office during the right term when a deal could be struck.
Despite disliking him, get-er-done Mclver, I want a full ring road!
Interesting note about the legal language of land which will be free in a year holding up a deal that size!
