Mayor's town-hall, Rich getting richer, And new arena for the Dogs

Bill Kelly Show

The Mayor’s Townhall with Hamilton Mayor Fred Eisenberger

Guest - Fred Eisenberger

Why is getting rich better for the world than staying rich? Last week’s release of the Paradise Papers serve as a stark reminder of the measures that the wealthy take in order to preserve their wealth. Does capitalism work better if it gives a greater chance for the poor to become rich? What can Canada do to build a stronger economy?

Hamilton Bulldogs owner Michael Andlauer is saying that it’s time for Hamilton to build a new arena to replace the FirstOntario Centre. He’s also ready to put money on the line in order to make it happen. The projected facility would hold five to ten thousand seats, and would cost between $60 million to $100 million. Is it time to make this happen and is Hamilton willing to make this investment?
