Is Jason Kenney burying Edmonton's World Cup chances?
It’s the second largest sports event in the world to the Olympics. Somebody should make sure Kenney is aware of that

So, what’s it going to take, at this late date, to wake our provincial government up?

More accountability and different strategy to clog things up a bit.

Sandor was tweeting yesterday about the logistics at Commonwealth and what would need to be brought up to standard beyond just the field - things like dressing rooms, media areas, etc.

That would only be awesome news, Victor Cui likely has a single vision to successfully manage both franchisees I'm sure.

All part of the cost/investment.

FIFA, similar to IAAF and the Queen's visit, require certain standards to be met.

Of course. At this point what would be just as pertinent as cost would be timelines. If Commonwealth has to be renovated to improve things like concessions and entries/exits then we have to start exploring timelines and see if/when tenants like the Elks will be disrupted. WC is just over four years out.

Gold Sports and Entertainment is proud to announce the official Naming Rights Sponsor for the future ballpark in Spruce Grove that is now to be named "Myshak Metro Ballpark". We are pleased and proud to have the Myshak Group on board as our Naming Rights Partner. Last night, a sold-out event at The Links Banquet Hall in Spruce Grove featured 33 additional named partners that are working to help build the sport of baseball in our region. The Edmonton Prospects Baseball Club would like to thank the Greater Parkland Regional Chamber for helping to put together this amazing event that put together many of the strongest supporters of sport and recreation in our area.

Reading that just makes me want to say:
“FIFA - go screw yourself”.

Something is wrong when England pulls out of a 2030 WC bid due to FIFA demands.
