Large stadium concerts make up a ridiculously small amount of a cities culture scene. If this is what defines Calgary or Edmonton I cringe to see where the province is headed.

How does funding to "culture and the arts" (quoted as that term could mean virtually anything) do "the most good"? Relative to what? How do you quantify doing the most good?
