[Flame On]

So let me get this straight.
The 1/3 that the city is going to come to the table with has to be paid back to them by the Flames, and for this they get a new stadium in their city which they'll shove all over their tourism Calgary videos and point to as a visual landmark.

They already want a stadium, Flames or not, and even include it in their East village Entertainment plans. (you know cause it's nice to not have a Stadium that can't actually entertain due to age and design layout). Plus it's part of their legacy building Olympic Bid plans.

Not to mention any jobs, construction jobs, revenues from the obvious bars and lrt fairs and non-flames related events that will bring people to town and hotels + whatever other intangibles their are annnnnnnd the Flames will pay all the upkeep and maintenance costs. And all eventually, for nothing after the loan is repaid!?
