We did this in Colorado when I lived there back in the early 70s. Boy did that raise a stink. The Olympic Committee was sent packing and had to dust off the welcome mat in Grenoble, France for a repeat performance there. I suspect that the citizens in that part of Canada looked at the debt that Montreal still carries for hosting the summer Olympics of 1976. I'm sure all the public officials in Calgary are sad now. They won't get to rub elbows with all the royalty of Europe...
