"The futures of the Saddledome and McMahon Stadium remain unclear. The vitality of the Calgary Stampede, a cultural jewel in the City, has also not been fully considered."
This quote bothers me. What is the deemed cultural value of the Calgary Flames? To this Calgarian, the Flames mean a lot more to me, than the Stampede. I've also taken a long hard look at what kind of special treatment the Stampede Board gets from every city council. Are the Stampede Board a private entity?
