If this was a coyotes deal I’d never hear the end of it. The city and province were straight up swindled.
the city gets to own it, it's not like the flames own it for only 40m. The city will get like 2x what they paid in lease payments alone.

You can't have a major city in 2020's without a major event centre for concerts and sports teams. The alternative is flames leave, the saddledome gets demolished, a new building is built anyways but the city pays for 100% of it with no guarantee that a major tenant paying millions a year, moves in.
