Christ, even Moncton, NB got a brand new outdoor stadium that has allowed them to host multiple events (CFL, Track and Field, Woman's World Cup, MLS Exhibition, Francophone Games, Concerts, etc. ). They are even in the process of building a state of the art downtown arena that seats 10K for a friggen QMJHL team.

Ok so because they wasted taxpayer money, we should too? The benefits of a new Stamps facility are not worth it and that's why most people don't want it. As I said before, not a single compelling reason to build it has been offered.
