The final decision is city council's, but provincial funding is the one thing the city was waiting for. There will be no direct federal commitment. The federal funding will be "in kind" for other worthwhile projects, thus freeing up city funds for the events centre.
Provided the city is satisfied with the level of provincial support (and knowing that they are unlikely to get more than what the province is willing to commit), I assume the events centre is now a go.
Next, the announcement of the winning bidder and the release of the renderings.
