Perhaps, this is more a debate into the language into what is actually part of the project and what is simply the City's, irrespective of any private venture project.
Based on the deal that Pike posted it would seem *yes* capacity to enter and exit the arena is part of the original agreement (which was later amended so that CSEC was on the hook for overruns)

Devil is in the details and what's in the contract but by my read and what has been agreed to it doesn't seem like CSEC is living up to their end of the bargain.

And let's be honest, Pike is not an unbiased source, (just like Gondek isn't) Sportsnet 960 regularly carries water for the Flames.
