hmm, no mention of the EX grounds in the article above ?
 
I assume they'll build that York stadium near Rexall Centre?

It's embarrassing how much Hamilton has bickered over everything. It never should have been a joint bid in the first place. Their West Harbour plan was perfect and they cancelled it because they're stupid, and now they lost the athletics stadium. Congrats.

I just hope this is all done before the games start. This all makes me tempted to walk in to one of these sessions, bang their heads together and say "shut up and just get it done!". Good lord.

Hamilton bickering cost them nothing. Sure they lost athletics......but they gained soccer. Sure the lost a shiny new stadium but they end up with a bigger, virtually new one, at Ivor Wynne.
 
Not quite near Rexall (see attachment)

Nothing to build at the EX grounds, beside they voted to rent out the facility to the Games.

I thought some of the events would be held on the EX grounds / ontario place ?
