Also for everyone bemoaning the fact that the announcement does not include transit to the airport or Banff etc:
The Vancouver bid book did not mention a Canada Line Skytrain either and it only brought up the Sea to Sky highway in the context that the federal govt had committed to making improvements.
Like the Green Line and Airport CTrain line - the Canada Line was just an nice to have, possible idea that had been floating around for a bit. But it wasn't part of the bid presentation at the time.
