Who knew the City of Calgary’s Financial Stability Reserve was intended to be used to re\u002Delect the premier?

Premier Smith, who as Wildrose leader was a renowned exponent of austerity, has left herself an escape hatch for accusations of hypocrisy. The province isn’t contributing to the cost of the arena per se — perish the thought — butto the cosmic-scale infrastructure upgrades that have made the building of the arena suddenly possible.

. NDP Leader Rachel Notley started raising questions about hidden costs possibly lurking behind the headline financial details of the Calgary arena deal, and history teaches that she is likely to be right in principle. Edmonton’s experience with Rogers Place shows that a rink can be built more or less on-budget if the budget is insanely exorbitant in the first place, but the larger scope of the Calgary arena project obviously offers more opportunity for cost overruns.
