We know the Ticats was not a substainable franchise to bring in the stadium in the west harbour. Period! Even Bob said he wants to bring another franchise in to be profitable. If someone doesn't come up with more money to buy another team (Pro soccer is viable and much more profitable) and build the stadium where we all know it should go then we should just forget about a new stadium for now and concentrate on a velodrome and a park that have positive benifits to the community. I have trust in the council to choose the west harbour but it's HostCo that I don't trust. They have their own agenda and we could loose the money that is being offered to us. Remember it Toronto's games with Hamilton as a statigic partner. It's kinda sad all around but Bob Young has left the council with no other choice now by refusing not to be a partner with Hamilton council. Council has stated that the land at the east mountain is owned by the ORC and has to be put up for sale by a fair public auction which would take months. The ORC will not change it's rules for land transfer.

I hope the Katz Group sees something here that they can profit from. They are now the Trump card.
