Subnetting is much more flexible than you would lead one to believe. I can
re-subnet any subnet if I wish to, for example.

I may have 10.0.0.0/8 as my enterprise level network, and decide to allocate
10.1.0.0/16 and 10.2.0.0/16 to my Russian and Ukraine networks, in that
order.
I would then give the Canadian group the 10.[3-127].0.0/16 networks to work
with.

One of those Candian groups may decide to give accounting 10.3.12.0/24 ...
and segment them from the network via a firewall, etc.

Its all routing issues after you make these decisions.
