How can there be "substantive, hard-core deadlines", when there is no set deliverables or roadmap for anything.  What deadline do we set?  The missing & murdered women's inquiry just keeps resetting because they have no goal.  So far it is nothing more than a massive wake & hugfest.  I'm not clear if they are expecting the government to deliver their missing & dead relatives at the end? What is the exact end point?  Indigenous peoples are doing the next generation a disfavour by pushing this reconciliation.  They are saddling their children with this ridiculous issue that should be receding on it's own, but now the children have to deal with it for generations.  Keeping one's cultural traditions is one thing, but going back 200 years is not possible.  Doing this to their future generations is sad.  The next generation wants to live in the modern world with smartphones and flat screen TVs, not in Tipis chewing pemmican .  Bellgarde is all charisma, little substance & is mostly wrong.
