Or perhaps it’ll be a good thing to have someone, not necessarily Smith, go into the negotiations realizing the Calgary market isn’t going to get a 100% privately funded arena.
The way Nenshi and his group handled the negotiations cost the city it’s only known potential partner in an arena project. Maybe there are others out there, but CSEC is the only one known to the public at this time. Not saying Nenshi should have accepted CSEC's deal, but his hard stance on 100% repayment won’t work for any investor in this project that we publicly know about.
Hopefully, whoever is elected, can find a partner to build a new arena.
Also, to say “Get ready to be raped by CSEC” because of who people are or aren’t going to vote for is ridiculous.
