It is a weird condition that forces the City to spend more given Provincial amount.

Really, the fact that governments were making distinct announcements on their own with various conditions shows that the negotiation was not coordinated. One would have expected an agreement and all three levels coming out together to announce.
If they can make the non-matching deal with the Feds that would move me a lot closer to be yes column.

370 city, 700 million province, 1.75 feds would look pretty attractive if a flames arena got thown in. This would make the myopic argument of the feds money is free make the project a win. That’s still 280 million short though.
