There's no way there is direct funding from the Province, I have to think they found a way to fund some of the indirect costs (ie Green Line or something) of related infrastructure.
If there are Provincial dollars then you can effectively double the amount as the true cost to Alberta tax payers as the Province will need to find a way to spend that same amount on something in Edmonton now.
