In the article it states the need to be able to play indoors as the schedule will change to playing through winter months. That said, what is TFC going to do? Won’t the weather affect them at BMO stadium too?
Lots of road games and there is a winter break like they do in the Scandinavian leagues
It's finally happening and will be sad to see the old gal go. So many memories and moments there from the Oilers to Boys II Men to Oasis to Smashing Pumpkins and The Hip.
The plan is to use this for housing and expansion of the Exhibition lands.

It really is a beautiful design, but desperately needs a makeover, somehow bring the seats closer to the action and a full update of the concourse and concessions/bathrooms.
Sadly, it has been piecemeal this and that over its life and while it works, it is far from a great experience at times.

46K at the CMNST game last night. Definitely felt its age. Concourses were jam packed at the half.
^honestly though, pre game and half was not as bad as I thought it would be and better than most concerts and big Elks games due to the number of families vs. heavy drinkers; )

The CFL expansion stove is continuing to heat up, reports of another potential stadium project in Quebec City. This has supposedly been in planning for about a year, size will be ~25,000 seats and is currently proposed to be located on the site of the old Colisée Pepsi.
Source is in French.

That would be great. Would love to see a CFL stadium in Quebec City. If they could the redeveloped the rest of the parking lot into a mixed use entertainment district...
