What we need is a private corporation with vision. You see, the NCC does not own all of the Chaudière Islands, I believe the majority is still privately owned (Domtar). So if someone with big money and big vision (guys from Distillery District) could come along and buy out Domtar, they might be able to work around the NCC lands.
Unfortunately, I can't find the ownership maps, but they were in the Citizen a year or so ago.
