I don't understand the interpretation of desperation, and I am by no means a Nenshi fan. To me, it's a valid question, and the opposite of desperation. He isn't willing to sink more money into the bid, but is willing to see if money already allocated to other projects can be considered as part of the commitment.
As a business owner we are always looking at ways to allocate money we are spending anyway to try and receive further grants or subsidy from the feds. I have no problem with that strategy at all.
