The $40M will probably come from the private sector. I also heard the financing was split 45% provincial, 45% federal and 10% municipal and that the price of the arena was not set yet.
Quebec sent a lot of money to finance the 2010 Vancouver games which cost $1,7 Billions to Canadians. Did you hear many people in Quebec complain about that? It's only fair they get something in return too, don't you think? That's what Canada is all about. And last time I checked, Quebec was still part of Canada, like most Canadians and Quebecers wished back in 1980 and 1995.
