I was on board with the Mayor and City walking away from the deal after Edwards tried to strong arm us into paying for what CSEC had agreed to, but now we are effectively paying the total cost of the original arena design. Seriously, we look like giant fools.Murray Edwards walked away from $10M in cost increases and we now have a deal for $1.25B!? What in the actual fuck. Our supposedly conservative Premier is kicking in $300M for demolition of the saddledome.
