Apparently.
Says so in this morning's Ottawa Sun.
And you, yes you there in Medicine Hat, Goose Bay and Vernon, you will have a stake in it.
Plus Ottawa will get its third CFL franchise.
Interestingly the proposal, which is for a revamping of the present downtown fairgrounds and stadium, was opposed by the councillor representing the ward that Lansdowne Park is in. Clive Doucet is the man's name. The project was also opposed by the four other downtown representatives.

And the CFL team will last a few years in Ottawa, in a ridiculous location where people don't like to go and traffic is terrible. And then it will fold and we will have a huge stadium on prime real estate, that will sit for years until it starts to break down and has to be torn down.
