The term legacy keeps being thrown out, but it doesn't make sense in the current economic state and climate for the province.

We're going to have the debt with or without the Olympics with the way the government functions. Since that's the case, I don't have an issue in investing money into infrastructure that we have a desire to build and refurbish anyway, that could yield more revenue and services than what we're getting presently.
