That is my point. I'm agreeing with you. It's hard to sell a house or a car or a "vision" when you include various externalities. Home repairs, costs of renovations, estimated costs of furniture.
I'm not blaming the Flames for not including these numbers. But I certainly am not faulting the City for including them in their proposal.
I think most people on here (or in general) were of the mind that the City's contribution in the original proposal was too much, so anything over and above that is tough to deny - whether 1.8 billion or 1.1
