Olympic decision time for Calgarians in 2026 plebiscite
CALGARY — Calgarians will make important choices on behalf of their province and country when they step into the ballot box Tuesday.
In answering the question whether they want to host the 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games or not, they are also answering the questions who do you trust, what do you believe in, what are you afraid of and where do you see your city in eight years?
The massive financial and logistical undertakings of holding a Winter Games asks those hard questions of a host city.
Calgary is the beating heart of winter sport in Canada. The 1988 Winter Olympics put it there in a different era.
