5 per cent of 1.49 billion is $74,000,000. That's a lot of bus service.

That money is supposed to be coming from the payroll tax rate increase. But if the tax money was used for new service that was paid for on an ongoing basis (instead of upfront), they wouldn't have to pay interest and borrowing costs.
