A billion is a lot of dough, but if the project includes a hotel/entertainment or transportation infrastructure, they will blow through that in no time.

I think one of the main goals has been to provide the Flames and Stamps with new modern facilities and to house them in one central location.
I was in support of a west end location for a number of reason but a Calgary Sports & Entertainment complex/facility would be an ideal cornerstone for the future of Stampede Park and their plan to be a year round destination.
