The renos to make it a CFL sized venue were supposed to cost an additional $10 million which no level of government was willing to cover IIRC. Where Bluto when you need him to explain it all?

The renos are happening now. Just Google the place really and in reality the venue was built to accommodate football later. TFC fans will say otherwise but the place was built with football in mind too

Maybe he's down at BMO field helping out with expert supervision.

The renos to make BMO football ready aren't happening now.  That's the third phase which is not set in stone at this point.  It will cost $30 million to make BMO football-friendly (retractable seats and I'm assuming locker room facilities for the Argos).  $10 million has been secured from the city, $10 million from the province, but their remains $10 million funding gap.  MLSE will not fund that so it will probably come from CFL teams (that's my guess).
