Factoring the interest payments for the debt of its capital cost - and the significant amount in operating losses - each passenger on Sheppard currently costs almost $4.00.
How much would you say each passenger costs with a $5B extension? Let's say with a hypothetical (and generous) ridership increase of 50% (72,000 riders/day)?
Any way you look at it, it would still be grossly unfair to other transit users, taxpayers, and the city. I'd equate that to theft.
