There's so many things we could get funded that we need government/money support for. Green Line to North Pointe, connection with airport, Airport to Banff rail, McMahon upgrades, as well renovation/upgrades to Olympic Oval/U of C's Kines complex, Winsport, investment into Nakiska and Canmore recreation areas.
If they're aiming for 2034 (or maybe even 2030?), lots of the grunt from the 2026 bid exploration probably provides an advantage no? We already know what we need, and what the rough costs for it should be. Now it's the case of getting more of a solidified estimate, and buy in from the public and all levels of government.
Calgary is so well position to run the Winter Olympic again. There's still infrastructure from the 88 Olympics that can be used for these games, and provide much needed renewal to them. It will help in accelerating funding for infrastructure that's already trying to get funding anyway. It was a good idea I feel back for the 2026 games, and my mind hasn't changed for it.
Let's go for it.
