Oh, agreed. Those are some of the reasons why I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
TTC is NOT paying the bills, though. Metrolinx's investment strategy, such as it is, states that they will burn through the provincial cash commitment to fund the first projects and then figure out what they will do from there. The City is not being asked to pay anything. That's one reason why these lines will be provincially owned.
I personally don't see it as TTC / city / provincial / federal money, I see it as my money, and I want it to be spent wisely regardless of which level of government it is being funneled through. And I don't see the province spending an extra billion or so to force the TTC to extend a money losing subway as a wise use of that money, especially when that subway is not needed.
