Are you referring to the NW LRT extension or rec centre? (which is CIF funded - or was some MSI money allocated in 07?). In any event, we found out it's impossible to rely on funding from other levels of government. *cough* Stephen Harper *cough*. Without the CIF - ($42million tax room funded) people would still be waiting a lot longer for that rec centre.
Similarly, the main reason why NWLRT to Tuscany has also taken so long is that the Province rolled out the actual MSI funding much slower than originally promised - which has meant a lot of short term borrowing debt related to construction.
