I’m still confused as to why this was publically funded.

Over his time in office, Hair guy has made a bunch of against-theme policy decisions that to me seemed like an effort to curry favour with the rabid opposition. Taking on this boondoggle when it was only c$4bn seemed like more of the same.

C$34billion?!? What a gong show. And, like before, the opposition will use that gilded olive branch to beat him about the head and shoulders.
