Excellent read on the arena deal. I've always agreed we need a new arena, there is a great benefit to it for the city. I kinda knew CAA Icon would get it done, but they really didn't negotiate a good deal for the city. I'd liked to have seen CSEC pay a larger share. Who engaged CAA Icon?

Thank you for the live tweets! It sounds like Smith is getting the answers she wants and people are drinking the kool-aid presented in her videos.

Not gonna cut the cord anytime soon, as much as I want to. The Flames should broadcast their own games on their website.

I don't want to wait around to find out Smith can't deliver. This biased survey directs public opinion toward Smith's beliefs which will lead to a predetermined result in the AB Next consultation. What a waste.

All the best Gian-Carlo! 2 things stand out for me during your terms as our Councillor: 1. Outstanding leadership from you & Nenshi during 2013 flood and 2. Investment in active mode infrastructure in Ward 9 - perhaps we can still get a pathway beside the train bridge at the Bow/Nose Creek junction?

Congratulations, Corey. It's going to be fun following you and the other Albertans as members of parliament.

Congratulations, Greg. With almost as many casting their ballot for Lindsay it shows many here support their message to build homes, create jobs in the trades, make Canada an energy superpower (clean and conventional energy) and breakdown provincial trade barriers. Please support this in parliament.
