Harper was lambasted for offering up money for the Quebec City arena, he wont dip his toe in that pool for some time.

There's no money without a successful Olympic bid.
The Mayor hasn't said there is no money, he said “I’m open to conversation but I don’t believe in public money subsidizing private profit in general. It will be hard to convince me it’s a good use of public money.”

You don't win the Olympics and then go out and find funding though.
