The whole concept of "build it once and then walk away" is crazy. Rather, the Olympics should be held in 4 specific locations, each of which hosts on a rotating 20-year basis. For the Winter Olympics, have one in Calgary, one somewhere in Europe, one someone in Asia, and one in the US. For the Summer Olympics, have one in the US, one in Europe, one in Asia, and one in either Australia or South America.

why Calgary and not Vancouver? they're better suited to run the Olympics on an ongoing basis, considering their current infrastructure.
