The price you pay for not voting Liberal 
(en francais)

U of W $7.5M shy for Games arena
Still hoping for corporate cash

Hmmm.... , the last Pan Am Jr's hosted by Canada were in Quebec. I seem to remember large amounts of federal money flowing to that project. I wonder what the difference is here?

The U of W is not without fault here, if the article is correct. If they only began seeking funds in May, then they deserve whatever mess they end up in. Other funding should have been sought from the day they found out they were hosting the games. The unfortunate thing about this, is that it is the students who will suffer in the long run.

The stadium is about 1/2 mile from where I live and about 1 mile from my office. It's beautiful and will be a lasting legacy for the University, it's athletes and the city. It will be very sad if part of that legacy is a needless debt.
