Here's another update on the ongoing saga up in Edmonton.

Wait a second.

Didnt I read somewhere that the money the City was putting up was an allocation of these funds already? They were considered Provincial funds allotted to the City of Edmonton to do with as they saw fit and hence they were going to allocate it to the arena deal as the City's Municipal involvement.

Its Provincial money that the City gets to decide what to do with, I thought that was where the cash was coming from in the first place and hence doesnt address the missing funding.
