I think that was always the case, regardless of the winner of the election. No political party would have the audacity to take tax dollars in a recession for a private venture like this. It would be a tough sell in Calgary even if the economy was in better shape.

Indirectly, I can still see some contributions for environmental cleanup, infrastructure, etc. But tossing bricks of Bordens at the Flames for their new building? I still can't see it happening.
