Something's afoot....
New roof for BC Place may be announced tomorrow
Vancouver/CKNW(AM(980)

The Premier has called a news conference for tomorrow morning and it’s believed he will talk about the government's choice for a new roof on BC Place stadium.
The government has been considering building a retractable roof in time for the 2010 Olympics for several months, however critics worry it would become a financial boondoggle because of the tight time frame.
Both the BC Lions and the Vancouver Whitecaps have been invited to tomorrow's news conference.
The Lions say they have no idea what it's about.
Last week the Whitecaps told CKNW they’d consider playing in BC Place with a new retractable roof if it would improve their chances of landing a Major League Soccer franchise.
That's the league David Beckham plays in and it’s the top league in North America.
It is also possible the Premier will announce a project to build a retractable roof, but that would happen after the Olympic Games are complete.
