Immigration: Level Governments

Attractive Vehicle Dept: In fact, city staff thought the best way to get upper-level governments to provide funding was by creating a cultural precinct. That precinct, they wrote, “would provide an attractive vehicle to raise the funds necessary.”, according to Globe And Mail. The $120-million from each level of government never materialized before the recession hit full force in the fall of 2008. However, former councillor Elizabeth Ball, who dealt with arts issues while in office, said they were lobbying hard for it and getting positive signals and the October, 2006, report made clear that the plan developed by the previous council was for the gallery to share that block – envisioned as part of a grand new cultural precinct – with an office tower and a 450-seat theatre. Making the project attractive was vital because the city counted on getting two-thirds of the $360-million cost from the federal and provincial governments. As reported in the news.
