This is our only chance to secure federal funding for upgraded sports and recreation infrastructure (which we need), actually have many of the federal taxes that we pay come back to Calgary in a tangible, direct fashion. That's why I support this bid.

Stunningly incorrect. There are FAR greater needs in Calgary than sports infrastructure. This is a want, plain and simple. Acting like we need these things is sort of implying they are vital to the city, which they simply are not.
