Burlington is in the process of approving a new development in the west end of their city, with the QEW right beside it, and they plan to include an OHL sized building.

Are Hamilton fans actually going to Brantford to watch games?Burlington would be interesting but would Hamilton fans go to Burlington and vacate their support for Brantford? I think they would need that to happen. I am not sure Oakville would be enough of a catchment to work. Thoughts?

I could see Burlington working, Mike Farwell commented that he thinks Burlington, Chatham, Cornwall and Belleville should all be welcomed into the fray with an expansion team
I think as long as Andlauer owns the team and there's still remnants of people in the organization from the Hamilton years still working in Brantford, the fans in Hamilton will likely still support the Bulldogs. I severely doubt that many people here would drop their allegiance to go and cheer for a Burlington-based OHL team, especially if the rumours of OVG wanting to land an AHL team to be put in the newly-renovated Hamilton arena are true.Burlington would be interesting but would Hamilton fans go to Burlington and vacate their support for Brantford?

The only issue is from start to finish the entire project is expected to take 10 years. So the question is, will the arena be in phase 1? Or later in the timeline.New home for Brampton or an expansion team
I'd continue to go to Brantford. I'm not sure what other hardcover would do. I expect Brantford may lose some of the Hamilton people when Hamilton gets an AHL team.Burlington would be interesting but would Hamilton fans go to Burlington and vacate their support for Brantford?
