I thought about your question and just googled “how much money does the olympics make” and found this decent article.
I think that if nobody steps up to host the IOC comes back to a city like Calgary and steps up their game. Like if they stand to make between $3-5B profit off the games then I feel like there is a lot of contribution room for them to come to the table... heck the city shutting this down could actually be not a bad little gamble if they do.
Like how does the IOC square away with NBC that huge TV contract set to cover multiple Olympics if the 2026 games can’t happen??
