I’ll believe when I see it. Someone, somewhere, will manage to screw or up at the last minute.

Are we back to calling it an “arena project”???? When did this happen? No more “events centre”?

I hope it comes with renderings and they start construction ASAP.
We need a new arena as soon as possible

Win-win for Smith here: she gets to leverage it for the election to buy some calgary votes to win. If she loses, NDP are saddled with this expense they didn’t bring upon themselves, but will be used against them anyway. I want a new arena but good god I hate AB politics right now 😔

I know it’ll look like a generic « modern » building that won’t fit the aesthetic of the city whatsoever, but god dam I wish they’ll add some character to the building

As long as $0 of taxpayer money is used – I am all for it. If its really a good investment then private investors will be champing at the bit. Given that its a very conservative government who wants to keep taxes low this seems very possible.
I don’t think my grandma will have to subsidize me drinking arena beers and watching grown men fight each other haha

Happy for you folks.
Friend of a friend leaked the design to me ahead of the press conference. [Here it is](https://i.redd.it/f3s4ai0huxb31.jpg)
$10 on Daniel Smith asking for a no mask policy, not realizing that would affect goalies, then blaming Trudeau when she has to reverse stance
If they say no deal was done and team is moving back to Atlanta. The curse on otter will have finally gone full circle.
