How does this current bid stack for efficiency compared to bids in the past 30-40 years? Have any other Cities proposed to use 85% of facilities used in a previous Olympics. In my opinion the IOC has already allowed Calgary to avoid a bloated bid by cutting many stadium requirements. That's why the Calgary bid is not comparable to any other modern bid.
