A domed stadium at the University of Manitoba
The latest planned location for David Asper’s new taxpayer subsidized football stadium is the University of Manitoba.
Asper unveiled his latest plans over the weekend.
The idea could work. A shared stadium makes a lot of sense in Winnipeg; especially if it includes a soccer component.
The province is on board, Asper’s chipping in, and there will likely be a student levy to fund it. (I’m not a fan of the student levy idea, but I see a referendum on the issue occurring and passing.)
Winnipeg’s new stadium looks like it will finally happen.
