From that BIV article

Quote:
Likewise for public transit, he said federal funding will go into a trust, and regional and municipal governments will need to borrow the money to build new transit infrastructure.

“The money will only be released to them when all of the available land around the station is surrounded by high-density apartment complexes that are occupied by people," he said.
Seems like putting the cart before the horse. It's better to build BEFORE because it's cheaper when land is cheaper and you have more room to work with.

However, you can say the area UBCx will go through is quite dense already, especially with the Jericho Lands going up.
