THF isn't all sunshine and rainbows, though. It opened late due to construction dragging on, the city of Hamilton ended up in litigation seeking $35M in damages from the consortium charged with building it, and even today the city is still fixing the stadium four years after completion.

This is beside the financial issues surrounding IGF, as well. If I was a Halifax councillor googling recent stadium builds I probably wouldn't be enthused. I imagine city staff will cover this in their report to council.
