But what about events that need that seating? Open air concerts, special soccer events, etc

There is a need for it.

What about the inclusionary aspect of providing such a facility for the North End, which needs it.

Plus, what about the CFL in Hamilton? Don't you want that option for our city, which has a football tradition of well over 100 years? Why should we slam the door shut on that? It means a lot to the this city.

What if Bob Young can be convinced that WH can work, or a new mutually agreed upon business plan is conceived? What if he wants to sell the team? He will not always own the team.

This is called planning for the future.

Bob Young may want to give up on the CFL in Hamilton, (and I hope he doesn't) but this citizen and fan does not.
