No, it is not propaganda: it cost approx. $60 million PER YEAR in tax payers dollars to operate ($66.4 million for the 2010-2011 fiscal year)
By 2005 it was already at 1 billion dollars, from the original $2 million the entire program was slated to cost when it was first proposed in 1995.
Total cost to date is nearly fifty times the amount you posted, it is in the billions. Enough to fund a space program and send a man to the moon and plant a Canadian flag on it.
