That's ridiculous.
It's not just a Flames fan issue it is a Calgary issue. Nenshi will not support city funding for pro sport facility's even though they are staples in the community of Calgary.
He will ensure that no amount of public funding is directed to the Flames or Stampeders for new buildings.
When the time comes to an actual vote to provide funding for a new arena Nenshi will not vote in favor. And that time will come, so I say he will vote against it time will tell if I am right.
To answer your question. Yes he should remove the jersey if he is not going to vote in favor of the Flames. It is absolutely hypocritical, you can't see that.
Nenshi has already said in the past he is not in favor of providing funding to any privately owned professional sports franchise.
He has also said in the past that not 1 concert has bypassed Calgary due to the Saddle Dome.
Fwy don't bother asking for proof of a quote you know he has said this and not just once.
