You now what will be a bigger "white elephant" a 40M$ stadium with no anchor tenant, under used and not or rarely bringing any extra busines to the suroundind restaurants, bars , and stores .... and brings a little civic pride which is unmesureable in $ value !
I would rather see a 120-150M$ spent on something that does all of the above !!!!

Absolutely!
The stadium has to be "good enough" to potentially attract a CFL team. And it should be big enough for concerts etc. A small, cheap stadium will be a waste IMHO. Better to just hold on to the money (ya right
) till there is enough to do it right.
I suppose a lower cost option would be to build it in phases. As long as the infrastructure was installed for a premium, larger stadium, the seats and other amenities could be added as budget allowed.
