I don't have a problem with this funding model as described so far.
I do have a problem with a fixed roof stadium. Canadian summer sports should be outside. BC Place absolutely sucked until they changed it. Make it retractable roof and increase the ticket tax if necessary.
Field house should be funded by city. CFL stadium is for the city, not a lot of millionaires in CFL football. Cleanup should have been done decades ago and should not be paid by Flames owners. Most of the infrastructure around crowchild should have been done with public dollars long ago.
CRL and ticket tax is funded by people and businesses that directly enjoy/benefit from the facilities.
