While it is possible the government made the right decision for the wrong reason, it is still that wrong reason that is concerning.
While it is possible that it is the right decision made for reasons that were not punishing a riding. The decision is one that was supported by all of the parties who would be potentially using the facilities to the best of my knowledge (CPS, EPS, RCMP). I don't see how you can say with any certainty that it was made for the wrong reason, could it be that a new government examined the issue - looked at the potential costs and decided that it would be a poor decision to go forth with spending 120 million + on a police college that no one saw the need for. That is the other option and as it stands right now that seems like a pretty reasonable one at that.

Regarding the twenty million, I don't know, that being said I think it would be stupid for the government to start throwing good money after bad, which this undoubtably will.
