When did I say it wouldn't?
To me it's pretty evident that the Flames asking for public money for a new arena when the dollar is doing poorly and the team is struggling to compete financially is a very different scenario than today. In that case, the threat of the team leaving was actual very real and using public money to keep the team in this city holds a lot of value.
