I think the poll results change if the question is:

How much should government contribute to a new arena if a partnership can be reached?

Removing the absurdity of losing the franchise changes the tone to the debate and my response.

If the Flames move, there will be at least 10 other franchises thrilled to move into the Calgary market. And the NHL would be thrilled to see a small market move to one where they make money, even with an aging arena.
