.....build a 20K+ seat stadium, well.... Council has been clear on what it wants.
Thank you for your comments but that is the key phrase "WHAT COUNCIL WANTS".
Council seems to think they are building what they want and not what the public wants. I was not party to the meeting where council came up with its 14,000 play field but....
I was to other follow up meetings and the people, the citizens, the tax payers, the citizens of Halifax want a 20,000 plus stadium with the possibility of a CFL team.
So council can bury their heads and ignore the public, seems the only way for Halifax to get a stadium is to get rid of everybody on council.

I know plenty of people against a stadium, so your argument ends there. We elect a council to make decisions for the city and part of the decision making process is prioritizing what the city really needs. I am happy they aren't spending money on a stadium.
