I'm personally a fan of hosting these Games, and would like to see it happen, even if some of my taxes go towards it.
I think its very poor timing for calgary/alberta to go for an olympic bid. I dont live in Calgary, but I love the city and would hate to see it so "house poor" after the olympics.

Really the olympics should be changed to not bankrupt citys/country's
