Lets get creative:
-City submits in their Amazon Head Office proposal that they will build a brand new arena that comes with "Amazon Arena" naming rights for 25 years, free of charge, as part of the bid to lure their HQ to Calgary (hmm....nickname 'the Jungle'???
-Meanwhile, City takes all the cash in tax incentives they were going to throw at Amazon and instead plunks it into the new arena which appeases the Flames
-Win-win...Amazon comes here with their 50,000 jobs and we all start lighting cigars with $100 bills again
Hurray!
*what colour text do I use for sarcasm*
*for all I know this has already been mentioned in the 72 previous pages but I haven't followed/read everything*

If Nenshi gets re-elected...I think the Flames have to replace KK...too much ill will between these two to get something done IMO
