Dodging the Question (Olympics)
from Sprawlcast · host The Sprawl
We talk #Calgary2026 with city councillor Jyoti Gondek (no, she's not the one doing the dodging). When city council first approved exploring another Olympics, Mayor Naheed Nenshi called the decision "a risk that could have enormous payoffs." But nearly two years later, with a $30M bid corporation planned, council is still skirting the big question: should Calgary bid? In the absence of an answer, confusion, miscommunication and frustration have filled the void. We retrace council's steps and speak with Councillor Gondek about where things have gone sideways on this file—and how to get them back on track.
