Even though it isn't in any proposal anywhere. I agree with Transplant, if the Oylmpics come to Calgary there's gonna be a new arena. This is an event seen by the world and despite the drawbacks it does bring the attention of the entire world to your city.
I just can't picture an advertisement showcasing the Calgary 2026 Olympics with a picture of the Dome in the background.
Oddly, the sentiment at work is much different than CP. People here want the city to chip in and pay a substantial amount. Their reasoning is they go to the Dome a lot more than any other building or facility in the city. Thought that was interesting. Maybe selfish and short sighted, but interesting.
