Calgary needs a new arena with or without th Flames. So we can build it with or without their help once they eventually leave. The dick measuring contest really needs to stop, and In my Opinion the first step for this to happen is for council to stop the whole "Show us the public benefit" line. There is clearly a public benefit to a new arena in this city, a public benefit to and all the jobs the Flames create, to the charities they are behind, and covic pride.
So cut the BS and move on to what's fair for each side.
