There likely have been technological advancements that would help keep costs down and make a facility like this more "outdoors like" There is that transparent roofed stadium in New Zealand for instance, and the proposed Calgary Fieldhouse went that route. Keep it 22k seats max.

I agree but I'd say make it 30 000 seats minimum. McMahon has a capacity of over 35 000 and consistently fills the seats. I'd hope for 40 000 seats especially if we went the indoor route, but that is overly optimistic. Plus we somehow need the possibility of hosting the grey cup to be... possible, which wouldn't be the case with a 22 000 seater.
