The first step to make up the loss of revenue the city will look to raise taxes.

The next step they will say that they will be closing parks and public swimming pools and libraries.

They don't look at the possibility of holding events in the arena that would bring in 6-9,000 people 41 times a year?

Say an AHL Hockey team, Indoor lacrosse, or swap meets along with standard things like concert series and car shows.


Are the people currently running the MTS centre in Winnipeg that much smarter than anyone who could manage the Glendale arena? Is Glendale a bad market for everything??
