I have minimal issue with government sponsorship of facilities like Max Bell Area and WinSport, because they are built to a scale which actually facilitates public use, and no single professional sports organization dictates their schedule.
I know it's not a perfect argument, but that's the grey area in-between.

The Jubilee has 76 announced shows for the next year.
The four main tenants are:
- ALBERTA BALLET 13 shows
- C.P.O SYMPHONY 3 shows
- CALGARY OPERA 10 shows
- KEY BRAND ENTERTAINMENT (BROADWAY ACROSS CANADA) 26 shows
So yeah. The greatest tenant by number of performances is as date intensive as all of the other permanent tenants put together, is a billion dollar for profit corporation.
You think Key Brands doesn't get to call the tune at the Jubilee?
