If there are any Equestrian or Triathlon events they will be in my home town. Possible yay.
Depends on if they get their act together.

This is also good for Hamilton. This was a joint-bid, though obviously Toronto is the headliner. Hamilton should expect some positive economic results from the Games.

CBC (in that link) was saying that Hamilton should get a $150 million stadium with this, probably to replace Ivor Wynne Stadium. Pretty sweet!

Sweet, I'd love to attend one of the games... the tickets probably cost an arm and a leg though.
