With respect to the cancelling of the contract between the city and the Abbotsford Heat, I would state that if the NHL and the Calgary Flames had any credibility they would have willingly cancelled this agreement without any additional payment from the taxpayer.
There is absolutely no reason for the NHL to take any money from the taxpayer regardless of the stupidity of council members. What has occurred can only be described as legally stealing and any lawyer(s) assisting in this endeavour should hang their head(s) in shame.
