It doesn't necessarily have to be MLSE, just a committed owner with the means and ability to properly run the team.
I remember back in the 90s people were worried that the Lions were doomed because they weren't owned by the Orca Bay sports juggernaut that ran the Canucks and Grizzlies... they still managed to turn things around (in those years, the Lions were probably in as bad a shape as the Argos ever were) and are quite a well-run and well-supported team now.
