In the last iteration (July 2017) of the deal, the funding for the City's $175m cash contribution was from leftover funding from previous infrastructure grants identified during Infrastructure Calgary process.
So where does the City get capital grants from? Do these come from the provincial or federal governments with the mandate they be spend on "building stuff?"
