I see no mention of it financing buildings or infrastructure, so I don't believe this would be an appropriate avenue for the Calgary Flames to pursue to finance their new arena.

But what if the Flames created a different lottery to help finance the arena.

Would it be legal for them to create their own scratch tickets and sell them?
I'm pretty sure that for profit organizations can not run lotteries.
