    Toronto Toronto | Union Station Revitalization | ?m | ?s | City of Toronto | NORR

    Clearly, sarcasm is lost on you. I'm familiar with currency conversions between Euros and Canadian dollars. You will note I said "Toronto" dollars...as in what happens when anything gets built here, in Toronto, with typical cost over-runs. See our $13.5B Eglinton LRT line as an example.
