I know most politicians are short term thinkers focused on their next election, Nenshi included, but this "plan B" option can't be looked at in isolation. It simply makes sense to capitalize on the economies of scale from a combined facility when both are coming up for replacement at the same time.
Spending $80 million or whatever renovating McMahon stadium would be a massive waste of money. I would seriously have to question the research anyone has put into renovating old stadiums for anyone in city hall to think this would be a good idea.
