Winnipeg's is a cheaper $190m project between UofM, City of Winnipeg, the Blue Bombers and the Manitoba Government. Winnipeg Blue Bombers are paying back $85 million and the provincial and city levels of government are splitting the rest of the costs.

Hamilton's is definitely government funded, like you said, linked to Pan-Am/Commonwealth bids.

Right, Pan Am not Commonwealth. Unless it is both. I knew it was one of those second tier games.
