What will the cost overruns specifically be in? How much? People's taxes will be spent regardless of the Olympics. We have an opportunity to secure multiple levels of assisted funding for infrastructure in our city that otherwise we would not see. We also get to see our federal taxes returned directly to Calgary, instead of going to Ontario or Quebec.
