Just activating the zone block the Feds are running on this one. Passive-Agressive at its finest.
They can fluff all they want, but if the RCMP give the security cost and BidCo budgets, then due to a jihad attack weeks before the Olympics causes a need for further security by the national police the Feds will pick up the bill.
Imagine if Calgary says “Hey we can’t afford overruns we are just a city, so no suge in police because the Fed said no 8 years ago”
How does that even play out? It doesn’t. This is an international event. It is square in wheelhouse of the Fed.
It is too bad the Province NDP and Fed Liberals give two squats about Calgary and are allowing this to even be talked about. Its a non issue.
