Even post analysis has a lot of question marks. There are net benefits generally, albeit small, but would they be greater than if the city had not hosted? The authors even postulate that just having the resources to bid on the games may indicate the economy trending positively.

So take that thin margin of error for net benefit and look at our bid. The disconnect comes when you look at the lack of planning done by our bid compared to some previous. It was not well done.
Yup it was terrible. They didnt even have the funding model in place until
Like a week and a half ago. This debacle is right up there with Ken King and Calgary next.
