The issue is not funding, but priorities. The province scrapped together 3 billion for a needlessly-big 10 lane bridge just like that. If Toronto can put 3 billion towards a subway extension to nowhere to increase it's ridership by a mere 40,000, the same amount for the Broadway line to serve 250,000+ riders on opening day should be a no-brainer.
