Is this a gift to billionaires or is it an investment in public infrastructure?
Is there a public benefit to having a world class stadium?

This isn't going to be a linear process where one side is winning on a daily basis. It's going to have ups and downs. The Flames are taking their "downs" and successfully shifting the debate.
I mean, I could change the media narrative today by stripping naked, lighting myself on fire, and running down Stephen Avenue. But I don't see how it would actually advance my position or increase my credibility.

Maybe I don't understand public relations.
