If I were the Province I would be pushing for federal commitment by 2025 the latest. I am not sure that a Poilievre government will be funding much transit at all.
The mayors council/Translink wants the province/feds to commit to their Access for Everyone Plan by April 2024. With our provincial election coming up later this year I would expect it to be approved, among possibly some other election promises.

I would agree that a PP government won't be funding transit as much as Trudeau has, hopefully they'll respect commitments already made, but I could see them coming back and tinkering things which could lead to delays.
