If it is true (and you are right Ryan there are still many OKs needed) I can certainly live with it. Of all the "compromise solutions" this actually has the most compromise to it.

It keeps the team in Hamilton- in the urban area and a part of the city that could use some revitalization as well. It would work perfect with a King/Gage or King/Balsam LRT site. Despite the "perceived" issues I have never had a problem finding a parking space or getting in or out because there are sooo many surrounding roads.

The only major downside is no regional mass transit (I live in Bronte so I was hoping for this one).

Still other questions to ponder- Will the site be big enough to hold Grey Cups in? How big will the entertainment district be? What about the noise/concert issues?

Didn't a similar thing go down with new Yankee Stadium? NYC was trying to the Yankees to play right in Manahttan/Steinbrenner wanted to go to Jersey and they ended up staying right there in the Bronx.
