I do not blame BidCo for the late breaking deal and some of the resulting numbers. The feds and province were very late to commit. For security numbers, it was at the recommendation of the RCMP and CPS. Some of the City's capital commitments like the Vic Park money were necessary to meet the matching fund requirement. Should these things been resolved earlier? Yes, absolutely. Is BidCo primarily responsible? No. They absolutely would have preferred all this to be locked down by June, when other orders of government had originally agreed.
