For what it's worth, the Region's 2025 Preliminary Budget Book projects that the Transit Hub will be funded from 2027-2029 for a total of $120M.
$35M of "Early works" will occur from 2025-2028. The Duke underpass will be $3M and funded from 2026-2027.
All of this is on page 70 of 210 in the link below:

I would suspect that the "Early Works" will allow for the bare-bones station to be constructed at the King/Victoria site, and that the larger budget will be the construction of the larger building at the site.
However, since these budgets completely overlap, it's hard to tell if they ever plan to open the interim bare-bones station in advance of completing the main building.
