Not burying was the correct choice just look at Calgary and Edmonton systems. The key is that they can bury the Ctrain along Stephan Ave at any time capital is available.
The problem with the north line is that you don't have the option to go back and fix your mistake and the elevated to 16th Ave options were similar cost. So burying now is like the airport tunnel where if you don't do it now the cost is significantly more later.
