UCP appears to be leading a potential Olympic bid for Calgary - will be a great way to secure votes for next election. Mayor Gondek wasn't even aware when asked about it today but in announcing $17.5 million in funding for Calgary sport facilities, provincial minister spoke about Olympic bid.

When I read Alberta bid I thought maybe that was including Edmonton, but doesn't appear to be.

I highly doubt an Olympics bid for Calgary would go ahead without a new NHL arena replacing the current Saddledome.
Although I'm almost certain that the United Calgary Party will unload truckloads of our taxpayers' money to build a new NHL arena in Calgary.

Where is the fiscal restraint we have had to endure. The fiscal restraint that denied Edmonto’s bid for the 2022 commonwealth games?

And the FIFA bid

Whistlers bid will get more traction than one in Calgary. The BC bid is being lead by FN. Also Calgary would need to do a major rebuild of all facilities. The Jump tower would have to be moved to a new location. The OVAL is well past its prime and may not meet new standards. The Bobsled track is also in need of a major redesign to meet new Olympic standards.

Here are round one results. Lowest person drops off and second place votes from Aheer get distributed. Winner must eventually get 50% + 1.

When Brian Jean drops off, his voters next choice votes may put Smith over the top.

Looking really good for Smith. She just needs small percentage of Brian Jean's votes.

Danielle Smith wins. She will be the next Premier of Alberta.

Danielle Smith wins. She will be the next Premier of Calgary.

Fixed that for you, and us sadly.

We should divert that $170M for bikes lanes towards a plan to dismantle, transport and rebuild the legislature in Calgary at this point.

The one silver lining in this is that there's a good chance it'll make Notley's job easier next year
