I am surprised that the Flames didn't throw in a token share of the $330M cost savings due to the shared design. Like, say even just make it $190M so you can tell tax payers this helped save them money vs a previous budget.
No they haven't budgeted it. They put it the capital planning.. but they haven't found the moeny for it at all. It's a "future consideration"
