Er, moneymaker?
Let us examine this. Rolling Stones come to town - all the hotels were already full that weekend for the hockey game and the last weekend of the Atlantic Film Festival. The Spring Garden Road business association reported
the worst week of sales all year that weekend, because people avoided downtown like the plague.
Finally, Sir Paul is going to walk out of Nova Scotia and take $5 million dollars with him to Bermuda or whatever off shore tax haven he stores his cash in.
Money maker? Please. Money maker for Power Promotions and a few suppliers and vendors, but that is all.
