Hamilton is bigger than Winnipeg and Regina with a "market area" of all of South Western Ontario. 3 million people the Ti-Cats pitch to each year and enjoy fan support from if the CFL is their thing.
How can we not compare?
Considering Winnipeg is sticking a partial roofing system on the thing you realize that Winnipeg Stadium is actually a better bargain. I have no idea what Hamilton is spending 120$ million on. Maybe its just inflation but you could build that thing for $80 million if you ask me.
Hamilton is building a Tin-shed because it botched the process from Day one and this was literally a last minute plan they dug out of the blue it seems.
