With that, I do think this proposal, at this time, is our best option to keep a major Pan Am legacy project alive in the Hammer.

That may be true, but perhaps a "major" Pan Am legacy project isn't what is best for Hamilton and it's citizens. Perhaps a "moderate" (eg. scalable 6000 seat stadium) is what is best for Hamilton and it's citizens. If our 'best' option is to blow all of the future fund money on a bad idea, it doesn't mean we should go for it.

With this plan: * I look forward to the wind-fall 2 Grey Cup hosting opportunities in just 8 years will bring to our city. * I look forward to potential of professional soccer, and finally the return of major outdoor concerts.

2 Grey Cups would be great. However, is the Ivor Wynne area the part of our city we want to be showcasing to Canada? Wouldn't 2 Grey Cups at the West Harbour be even better?!

The return of outdoor concerts? At Ivor Wynne?? I don't think so. How do they get away with saying things like this?
