generally, a lot of the preliminary legwork gets done prior to bringing in their superiors. Everything seems very hush hush, which is what should have happened the first time around imo... the public will have a chance to scrutinize the proposal, but only after both sides feel that the deal is fair for both sides (again if there is one)

I've never been against an arena, but have always felt there's a number that could be palatable to the majority of taxpayers...for me, that's around 33% that said, the optimism suggests that number has changed from the previously disclosed numbers.
CSEC would do 33% in a heartbeat.
