Gateway was 5-10 years earlier. It's called inflation and the Canadian dollar taking a dive. That's why when government cost cuts from major projects to "save money today" it ultimately ends up costing us way more down the road.

Like the interchanges on SFPR for example. Going to cost 5+ times more to do them after the fact than if they just bucked up and did them right the first time.

Not much we can do though I guess because every single government does this.
