- don't think they'll have too many more ticket checkers or beer vendors because of a new arena
- construction jobs are good, but will last, what? Two years?
- already discussed, that's a finite pool
- I don't know what an LRT fair is.
- Yes, the 6 concerts a year we don't get that every one is tripping over themselves to earn that lost revenue over. Hotels are booked here far more often for Stampede, the Oil Expo, and other random conferences than the Flames will provide.
