Montreal spent a few million getting custom made concrete blocks. The entire Paris event only cost $5m. Montreal soaked up half of that making barriers. Of course it was cancelled - it was miss-managed so badly that someone should be sacked and potentially prosecuted for the decisions made.
As great as the Toronto circuit is, FE won't race there. They use these tiny little interesting tracks to be different and to hide the speed of the cars. It's very clever, but they'd look silly on track with IndyCar.
