Given that tunneling in Ontario seems to be costing about $750M per kilometre, I'd say about 20 metres - assuming that you already had a waiting TBM. Heck, $14.5M wouldn't even cover 1/10th of the cost of the first half of the Baseline BRT.

It might come as a shock to some, but $1M is no longer a lot of money. It is almost what the average person pays for a house. There are many new 'Millionaires' every week, just from lotteries in Ontario.

Some of you might remember a scene from Austen Powers, Man of Mystery. In it, the 'evil' villain wants to hold the world ransom for "ONE MILLION DOLLARS". That got great laughs from the audience, for good reason.
