That is comparing apples to oranges, a stadium can get much more private money than a 4pad and also appeals to more people when it can have a capacity for 20-30k. Halifax needs this stuff to appeal to more people.

Yeah... for the cost of the 4-pad... its not even in the same ballpark in terms of advertising revenue generation and mulitple usage.
How could a stadium not be pre-funded by future advertising rights if its only about the same cost of something that HRM payed for completely due to the feds backing out.
Is a $10 million dollar naming right sound reasonable for a stadium that will be constantly in the municipal, provincial, national media?
Irving Stadium? They really should give back a little.
