Are we on par with some of those B-rate cities?

There is a CFL stadium building resurgence and we would be silly to miss out on it and watch our dump of a stadium get even dumpier.
Clearly to some people here Calgary is a have not city. Every other major city is spending money on these stadiums that "aren't worth it". IMO this is more a Calgary problem in that there are so many transplants that don't have a lot of pride in the city and want to make their money and go back home. This "I don't care about CFL so I don't want a stadium" crap is nonsense and in the end will fall on deaf ears as the Flames owners will get their stadiums built. I don't know why I bother to argue with the same people that complained about the Oilers building that is still getting done and at a high cost to taxpayers. I feel like I'm arguing that the sun will rise tomorrow to people that continue to believe it wont.
