Your last statement is the most rediculous.  How can you call someone anti business who simply expects business to act like a business i.e. to operate without massive taxpayer subsidies.  Calgary is the 10th most lucrative market in the NHL and 4th most in Canada, can we really believe that they will move to Seattle or Kansas City which are untested and hardly likely to produce the support that is guaranteed in Calgary. NHL teams in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver build their new arenas with much less public support, why can't the Flames. How will  Canadians in general look upon this crass greediness by the team owners? How will Roger Communications which is in the middle of $5 billion dollar contract  regard this needless destruction of this important market for their broadcasts?  Maybe Nenshi isn't the easiest guy to deal with, and maybe that's a good thing.  I have never voted for Nenshi before and was going to vote for Smith in this election, I think I've just changed my mind.
