Whether than benefit will outweigh the cost someone that's more read up on the matter will have to answer, but the 'why spend all the money for a two week event' argument is silly

Can you provide actual examples of what will be built that will benefit Calgarians long after? In 1988 I think COP would be a good example. This time around I can't really think of anything off the top of my head but I also haven't looked into it.
