Ryan, forgive me if I'm wrong, but has Metrolinx not stated their preference for owning the lines they build? Would this not suggest that they would provide the majority of capital funding?

Also, for comparison, how much was Toronto slated to contribute to Transit City?

Finally, as for the city being able to afford the stadium but not LRT, I would think that if not for the future fund, we wouldn't have been able to contribute significantly to either. Unless the city does some fundraising I don't think we could afford to substantially contribute, despite the fact I'm a huge LRT proponent. This is why I hope Metrolinx will cover the capital costs.
