MLSE wants $10 million from Toronto for BMO Field makeover

BMO filed is a Billboard for BMO and now it will become a freebee for MLSE. It used to be "Exhibition Stadium" . If these sports franchises are such good business deals, why do they keep involving municipal tax money and resources?
PS. What happened to the Sky Dome? How much tax money went in to its construction? How much did Rogers pay for it? Why do these boondoggles continue?
It's a good thing that Johnson & Johnson didn't buy it and turn it into the "Ti-dee Bowl".

BMO field was never Exhibition Stadium....two completely separate buildings.
They often involve tax dollars because they drive income back to the City. Still having a hard time with that concept, I see.
Rogers didn't buy the stadium from the taxpayers....so brush up and come back a little more prepared.
