Then I assumed a 1 billion overrun, so 1.8b, and assumed that Calgary holds the bag on this amount and I get $1,844/resident.
Infrastructure like green line, road upgrades, etc. are hard to put towards the Olympics in my opinion since they need to be done anyways. I suspect this is what the No side is adding to their numbers to fudge them.
I may also be missing something in my numbers, but thought I'd share how I arrived at my conclusion.

Thanks, where my numbers differ from yours is I don’t think it’s fair to assume that business will bear an equal burden without just passing costs on the customers or in general being less competitive so the whole value rather than just the .43 factor should be assessed. I also think you need to include the full provincial amount.
