From the sound of it, the final outcome is gonna be a work-in-progress through negotiations. I never understood why the Cowichan ruling should cause the lenders to be stop issuing mortgages to the private properties there, since the FN tribe has said time and again that they were not coming after private properties. With this Musqueam agreement, I think both Musqueam and the federal gov are gonna try hard to avoid doing anything that would spook the lenders.
