Foolish spending
Province
A preliminary sketch depicts how Vancouver’s B.C. Place stadium would look with its planned new retractable roof. The provincial government plans to fund the $365-million roof through condo sales.
How very nice — we’re going to spend $365 million on a facility that most residents of B.C. have never been to or even seen. We all helped build B.C. Place in the ’80s. Now we are going into debt to refurbish a place that most of us couldn’t even find with a map and a flashlight. On the other hand, the Whitecaps are not allowed to build a facility at their own expense.
