I thought there was a thread about this already, but I couldn't find it. Anyways:

Quote:

The City of Calgary has reached agreements, in principle, with the province, Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation (CSEC) and Calgary Stampede to proceed forward with the creation of the Culture + Entertainment District in downtown Calgary, including a new and publicly-owned event centre.

The deal is valued at $1.2 billion

The City of Calgary is contributing 44 per cent, or $537.3 million, and 56 per cent is being contributed by both the province ($330 million) and Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation ($356 million).

Devil will be in the details, but must be nice to get the government to put over $850M into a project to support your professional sports team.

Hot damn. That's some expensive vote buying
