Quebec City spent a lot of public money on an NHL-sized hockey arena that does not have an NHL team -- hard to see govt coughing up for a stadium.

A 12-team CFL would be fabulous (but extremely unlikely), a 10-team league would be way more than 11% better than what we have now, but I'm not expecting even the latter in the next five years.
Unfortunately, Halifax was considering a Commowealth games bid about 10 years and decided against it due to cost. Too bad, I was hoping it would help get a stadium for a CFL team as well.
