Should Calgary bid for another Olympics or are we happy being remembered for the 88 Olympics? Do you think Calgary even has a realistic chance in 2022 since it was just held in Vancouver? Could Calgary possibly handle a summer Olympic bid?

The city has a whole lot to be proud of and hosting the Olympics would be a good way to show it off. We've grown a lot since 88, bigger city, almost double the people, better transportation, a new arena possibly coming etc. Plus, if any town knows how to throw a party, Calgary is definitely one of them.

By the way I'm not promoting any mayors. Especially ones that make endless promises.
