Because of costs and limited financial resources... that is why Halifax potentially (and I say potentially because I am not a financial expert) must choose between major projects.
Like you said in the airport thread, costs must be a consideration. You don't want us to use bankrupt Iceland as a model... and so this is why we have to at least think about only funding limited capital projects at any given time or the province/city could go bankrupt. No?
There is no question Halifax "needs" both... it is a fair question to ask whether we can afford funding construction of both at the same time.
