Calgary voted on the blanket rezoning, the federal funds were given/promised based on what Calgary wanted.
The threat of them withholding it is based on the city threatening to not do what they said they were going to do (violate a contract).
Even then there's wiggle room on what the city can do, because the federal policy is relatively broad because they know places like Calgary and Toronto aren't the same.
