The simple answer to that, Madam Chair, is no, they did not.
On December 6, 2006, they voted first to confirm, and directed the approval of the north-south light rail agreement project. They then moved further to that to direct me to negotiate with the consortium intended adjustments to the downtown scope. Then they further directed me to work with the federal and provincial governments under the terms of the existing contribution agreement, which clearly stated that it would require the approval of the federal and provincial governments to make any of those intended scope changes.
