I don't follow. Edmonton didn't get any provincial money. Unless you're referring to the small slice they plan to apply for to close their cap.

$480M project total.

$130M from Katz
$225M ticket tax
$200M from the city, $120M of which is via a CRL

I imagine the $25M hole is what is referred to as "Members of the Capital Region Board representing 95% of the region's population supported Edmonton in applying for its allocation under the provincial Regional Collaboration Program. The City will submit the application as soon as the program's guidelines are defined." Maybe that's what you mean?
