Here we have a situation where the landlord, Place Victoria, puts in a bid of $500-and-some per square foot. He finds out he's number four on the list, comes back and says, “Let me amend my bid down to $430 or $405 a square metre. Now I'm the lowest bidder. You don't have to do leasehold improvements, and so on and so forth. I win.”
Is that how the Government of Canada normally does business?
