Also, it’s a good thing security is a national matter not a municipal one. I can’t imagine Calgary declaring an international response to a bombing at the olympics.

There’s also only been two cases of security threats during the olympics, munich in 74 and Atlanta.
Actually they came up with 625 million, then in the following month cut 125 million right before the bid was going to fail. The second part that appears to be implying that the feds will pay for security overruns is still ambiguous.
