Looks like this will be yet another one but at least here it's outside forces at play.
It looks like there's still room to grow, even if it's somewhat marginal. Maybe bump capacity to 10K or something like that. I would imagine that if it were ever a need to get much bigger than that, they'd have had to look at building something completely new anyway since that site never looked capable of handling something huge like 30K+.

But I do take your point about Canadian stadiums often being built in a way that precludes significant expansion.
