I guess I don't blame them for holding out for public money. Maybe we see a bit less from owners and user fees say $150MM and $200MM respectively then $100MM from city for a CRL when all is said and done.

Man.....CalgaryNEXT had a fieldhouse, a CRL, the cleanup of the land....so many more moving pieces.
Thats the thing, in the grand scheme of it, building an arena is child's play.
It was the myriad of all of the extras that boondoggled the hell out of CalgaryNEXT.
