I guess it is Canada so it will success regardless but that would be a blow to the Stampede area revitalization.

Considering this is the City of Calgary forming the committee expressly for the purpose of building an arena in downtown Calgary, it's a safe bet that no one is talking about building something on the Reserve or outside the city.
Of the 3 Councillors on the committee, one is also a member of the Stampede Board and another is a member of the board for CMLC. Also on the committee are the CEOs of Calgary Economic Development and the Chamber of Commerce.
