It's time this city (and its Councillors) started to deal with reality. We need a new hockey arena, a new (not renovated) CFL stadium, and we really need to finally build a quality field house. Or we don't have sports teams anymore I guess... that's an option too.
The Flames organization is willing to do their part and does a massive amount for this city. To the best of my knowledge, no professional sports organization has ever just "built a building" without assistance.
It is time for the city to figure this out, start these projects, and (nice byproduct) get people back to work.
