So based off the way the SE portion is going, 2020 really means 2024. Gotcha.

The federal government spent 15 years, between 1991 and 2006, cleaning up the old training grounds land before it was returned to the Tsuu T'ina. The ground should be clean, but we saw this summer after the flood, that there's probably some stuff that was missed.

Frankly, I think the city should have walled off the access to the Grey Eagle Casino from 37th until an agreement was reached.

That would have been a sure way never to get an agreement.

Is there a 1% public art grant available for this portion of the ring road? Too late to get CP listed as an artist for consideration?

I don't think so as this is a provincial job and the 1% is a city policy

Not a City project. Province doesn't have a 1% public art policy.
