LINGERING COSTS. The 1976 Summer Olympic Games will have cost more than $3.5 billion by the time Montreal makes its last payment on the debt in 1995. The figure, calculated using data provided by the city and the province's Olympic Installations Board, includes interest payments of $763 million on loans negotiated by the Quebec government and $520 million on loans made by the city.
