I tried counting from a picture and it looks like maybe one less seat per row?

Just call the Gardiner renovations SmartDrive™️ and ignore the problem for 10 years.

Note for MPs, MPPs and senators If you are an MP, MPP or senator, you may file your nomination for municipal or school board office without resigning your current seat in parliament, the legislature or the senate. However, you must resign your seat by the close of nominations. If you are a...

Choosing to work with Kouvalis is a litmus test of ethics and judgement. Knocks her out for me.

Hunter But yeah, right now it's shaping up as a Bradford coronation.

With Tenycke backing Bradford and Kouvalis on Bailio, sounds like they are trying to cover all their bases. Easier to fight off a left-wing candidate if they have the chance to define it as a two-person race.

That saves money in the long run

John Tory by Friday: “We were on a break!”

Surprised that there doesn’t appear to be any hint that this was coming. No rumours, sly Twitter posts. Nothing. These things don’t come out of nowhere, especially when it’s in the past. Who took him down and why?

Sounded better than “an onanistic monument built for entitled consultants and paid for by their clients’ pension funds”

Time for Randy to dust off the podium.

Some quick data on stadium age. For average attendance, the age of the stadium has minimal impact on ticket sales. If anything there is a slight negative correlation but that's largely due to BOS/CHC skewing the trendline. Now attendance =/= ticket revenue, as premium boxes, amenities and...

Home run launch angle is 25-30 degrees. Assuming a parabolic flight, the ball should be traveling at the same angle when it lands (ETA - it's probably steeper due to air resistance). At 30 degrees the H:W ratio of a right angle triangle is 1:1.7, while at 25 degrees it’s 1:2.1. So a rough...

I went to a Rangers home game last season and that’s a perfect example of be careful what you wish for.

The team said so

A revamped Copps will help in Hamilton, and Paramount in Mississauga isn’t bad. But agree that we could easily support a 15k stadium in say Vaughan for concerts and events.

I’ve been to NHL games in Vancouver, Edmonton, Montreal and Toronto. MTL arena is huge, VCR is not updated and showing its age. Edmonton is the newest and it shows - big open concourses, nice suites, a loge level, some natural light in from the side, steep seating on multiple tiers to keep you...

The dude own an arena development company. What else is he going to say?

MLSE is doing a good job of regular refits and upgrades. Much more likely to see that continue vs a tear down and rebuild. Would not be surprised if they did an interior gut job to add more seating tiers and flexible options like a loge level. Maybe even dig the rink lower or expand their...
