I would say it's dead. It is more likely the Expo line gets extended eastward then does a half circle loop under the inlet to surface east of Lonsdale and connect up (or parallel to) with the east/west rail alignment and finish at a station at Lonsdale Quay. Still though, it would be extremely expensive for basically just one station (perhaps a 2nd could be added in Gastown on the way east at the beginning) and the growth (even potential for growth) doesn't exist in North Van like it does in the tri-cities, Surrey, or have the current ridership of the Broadway corridor.

I'd love to have it too, but I doubt I ever see it in my lifetime.
