Yes. It’s all infrastructure costs and part of the community rink. Provincial governments dump money into infrastructure costs all the time. Heck, Toronto is going after the federal government for costs right now. Zero provincial money is going to the new arena itself. Regardless if it’s built or not the infrastructure needs to be redone. More likely than not the province will be chipping in for a new water main feeder line as well.
I get that. And like I said....it is to satisfy the whims of the City. That particular money and infrastructure not happening otherwise. It is happening to facilitate the project.
Edmonton didn't get that. And the one who gave Calgary this was staunchly opposed to Edmonton getting it too.
