Stockholm and a joint Italian bid from Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo are still in the running to host the 2026 Games.

Premier Rachel Notley said she didn't think it was appropriate for the provincial government to weigh in on the Olympic bid debate.

"The province was not interested in this, the province turned its back on Calgary," said Mount Royal University's David Taras.

The issue about a downtown arena for the Calgary Flames being part of the Olympic bid was quickly shot down by the mayor.  "These are separate issues," Naheed Nenshi said.

With three days to go until the Calgary 2026 Olympic bid plebisicite, both sides of the debate are rallying their troops and making pitches to the undecided.

Both sides of the Calgary 2026 debate are campaigning in order to their message out to voters.

“Hosting the Olympics is neither a solution for economic and social utopia nor a race to an economic doomsday,” the chamber said.

The Calgary 2026 Bid Corporation (BidCo) says the federal government and the Government of Alberta have signed an agreement to consider an Olympic funding proposal. 

"I really want to get Calgarians to engage and let's push it over the finish line to get that bid in."

Calgarians will vote in a plebiscite on Nov. 13.
