It’s the Winter Olympics, but you think Calgary could squeeze in the facilities for the 40 other sports within the new rink budget?

No, but Calgary was tagged to spend much less.
The Olympic budget was over 5 billion dollars, with 370 million coming from Calgary and the Province, Federal government, and private funding contributing the vast majority. Currently, Calgary is set to fund the arena to the tune of over 500 million dollars.
