The article is bull.
Last I checked, Michigan taxpayers pay federal taxes. Canada is paying 100% of the Michigan matching funds, and 0% of the initial federal grant.
So, even if you believe the state's very creative accounting [[like not counting any of the site acquisition costs, and not counting any of the effects on existing liabilities for Ambassador and Blue Water), you still have 50% of the cost borne by the feds, of which Canada won't contribute a penny.
