Hamilton Mayor Fred Eisenberger warns if Council votes deal the closed session changes to the bid, they would effectively “abandon the entire Commonwealth Games process.”
The Commonwealth Games still need to find a 2026 host, or face potential extinction.
PJ Mercanti tells bid supporters they need to work hard in the coming week to promote the bid leading up to a crucial August 10 City Council vote to decide if the Games will be a Council COVID recovery priority.
Chamber President and CEO Keanin Loomis states the support is “contingent on securing funding from higher levels of government”.
