If Halifax could build a stadium half the size of the Alabama one for College Football and at half the price, even if it's bleacher seating & without cover for rain. It'll be half the size of Western CFL stadiums but about inline with Eastern CFL stadiums...

Speaking of Western Canadian Stadiums...
