What I take issue with is all the stuff coming out that says that the CoE only is paying this much when in fact the CoE is fronted over 95% of monies required to get this thing built.
Now Calgary is a totally different situation and while it's nice to finally see some information about the current proposal, I also believe that we're not hearing the whole story here either. More worriesome is McMahon as it just continues to appear to be an afterthought in all of this - Calgary is weird in this way, we'll build an expensive tunnel up at the airport which will be underutilized for years but not accommodate a better stadium or even a field house. We're good at building some big city stuff but just terrible when it comes to other stuff.
