It boils down to where you stand on the question; Do you want the Flames to remain in Calgary? If the answer is yes then you are pro-city funding. If the answer is no then you are anti-city funding. Anyone that wants the Flames to remain in Calgary while being anti-city funding will never see a resolution to their liking as either the Flames will stay with a city funded arena or they will leave Calgary.

I don't care to rehash the same cyclical arguments that have been going on in this thread since it's beginning nor do I care about people's opinions that the Saddledome should be fine for the Flames for another decade or two because the Flames clearly disagree and do not intend to play in the Saddledome for another decade. It's becoming clear that the city and Flames ownership will eventually come to terms on a new arena and it's the right thing if the city wants to keep the team. None of the arguments in this thread really matter when it's all said and done because it's going to happen and some people will be happy and some wont as with any city funded project.
