Halifax council takes first step toward stadium for potential new CFL team
Behind a paywall, but the most interesting part reads:
"Anthony LeBlanc, founding partner of Maritime Football, said he felt good about council's 15-0 vote to move the process along. LeBlanc said he felt confident his group would be able to continue to work with city staff, the province, landowner Canada Lands Company, and the Millbrook First Nation.
"Ultimately there's optimism that we can do this as long as everybody is at the table understanding what the shared risk is."
LeBlanc said the city has made it clear it is not interested in owning the stadium, which would be the responsibility of his group."
