100% agree. If this isn't a misquote, something isn't right.
I've reached out to the Brandon Sun journalist to confirm source of this $100m number (I couldn't find it in the 179pg Carberry document or the presser video).
I've also emailed Nelson River and Sigfusson to see if they'd toss a ballpark cost. Don't get hopes up regarding response. May shed light on the "construction mafia" theory.
