Not yet, but as with most things in Montreal for any infrastructure or public buildings, cost overruns early in the project will force the province to claim there's no more money and the Feds will have to step in, and then we will be paying for it. It's not even really a secret, it's just the way Quebec rolls as a "have not" province.
But yes, that money would be better utilized as part of a new baseball and or football venue downtown. Who is going to use it? Saputo has his own stadium, as do the Als, though anyone criticizing McMahon needs to step foot in that decrepit McGill stadium (though as an out of province person, you have to pay more now).
