What's your time line for this? The boom is new and we have yet to see how First Nations will respond to it. Some First Nations are starting to do fairly well here...without the chest-thumping, hardass, cocky attitude.

Simple in principle, but let's send you (or I) off to be abused and treated like shit for a few years and see how easily it comes.
