And then there would have to be a bigger spend to upgrade facilities + fight possibly stronger bids from other cities.
Salt Lake City would be the heavy favourites in 2030. Calgary would just be wasting money bidding for it. On the other hand bidding for the 2026 Olympics almost guarantees victory.
