Wasn't even happy with the Olympics renovating McMahon because that means it would just prolong its existence; there should be no excuse to get a new stadium in full replacement, and hopefully in the next 10 years.

Lack of funds/ROI is a pretty good excuse. Not sure where any big public commitment will come in the next ten years, and we know the CSEC isn't playing for it all, so I would imagine reno remains most likely.

Yeah the new or reno'd stadium should not have a capacity over 30,000, just not necessary.
