From Wikipedia:
The National Capital Region (French: Région de la capitale nationale), also referred to as Canada's Capital Region and Ottawa–Gatineau (formerly Ottawa–Hull), is an official federal designation for the Canadian capital of Ottawa, Ontario, the neighbouring city of Gatineau, Quebec, and surrounding suburban and exurban communities.

My point is not that Gatineau isnt part of the NCR, my point was regarding a comment that said the NCC has a different approach with Gatineau. the NCC doesnt have to find land in Gatineau for embassies etc. So it does make some sense that there is a different approach.
