But infrastructure and major events go hand in hand right? If we didn't have the Olympics, would we have a C-Train? If Calgary had won the bid for EXPO 2005 we would have had a full ring-road 10 years ago. Even the WEST LRT might have been done already.

If Vancouver didn't get the Olympics, would the road to Whister have ever been expanded?

Major events speeds up everything!
