NEW: Ford reveals plan for new Toronto subway line from Ontario Place to the Science Centre
The province says it can deliver the project by 2027 — two years earlier than the city's projections — using stand-alone technology and a different procurement method. The project will cost $10.9 billion, up from the city's $7.2 billion estimate for its version of the line.
Toronto Mayor John Tory was not at the announcement because he hadn't been fully informed about it, he said a day earlier.
