I'm on the fence. I'd like to know who pays for the cost overruns? I'd also like confirmation of facilities will be built rather than assuming that there will be a new arena.

The city is on the hook for overruns in cost.
We get a field house and a 5,000 seat arena. Everything else is renovated or sent to Whistler and Canmore. There are no new roads, no new interchanges or overpasses, no new spur line for the LRT to the airport, no extension of the green/blue/red lines.
