Hamilton is still in the drivers seat. Clearly the Cats are leaving town, so we MUST take advantage of this opportunity to replace Ivor Wynne while we can. We must take the 6,000 seat harbour stadium and then redevelop Ivor Wynne. We can't allow an old, decaying tax drain to remain standing in our city with no replacement just to appease one business who wants to leave. What about all the businesses and citizens who are choosing to stay? They are worth FAR more than someone on their way out the door. It's not fair to tell the existing tax base that they'll have to keep propping up Ivor Wynne and then pay the full price for a replacement stadium to serve the community when we are being offered a 'FREE' stadium by HOSTCO. Pan Am is a one-time shot.
The Cats sound like they can work out a deal with Aldershot and Paeletta on their own. We need to worry about our own city and do what makes sense for us.
