Let’s Ask Ottawans: Do You Want Lansdowne 2?
One more thing on the Lansdowne 2 question.
Why don’t we ask Ottawans would you like to pour more of your taxpayer money into Lansdowne 2?
I’m guessing the answer is no. Who wants to pay $175 million or more for an operation that makes money through real estate dealings with developers (not for us but the developers)?
LANSDOWNE: Elevator, Elevator, We Got The Shaft
What’s in it for Ottawans? I know what’s in it for Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group, but what’s in it for you and me?
Why am I paying more money to support rich guys?
And make sure the ballots aren’t counted by the city. Let’s leave it to honest responsible citizens of Ottawa.

NO. Didn’t want the airport hotel and don’t want our $$$ going to Lansdowne 2.
We don’t have to ask all Ottawans, just a few potential tenants. I was down their on Sunday and a lot of empty locations. if there was an elections coming up it would be a tight race between For Rent and A Louer… they had signs in every second window.
Kosmo, imagine how attractive a retail/commercial/office lease will be while Lansdoome hosts a 2-5 year construction site.
Mr. Benn, a 5 year construction site with a few more empty locations no farmers market, no junior hockey and one entrance for football… sounds attractive enough to keep everybody away.
Tear it down (leave the Aberdeen pavilion in place) and put up a tree-filled park.
