Hamilton, Ontario – Hamilton Tiger-Cats caretaker Bob Young issued the following statement about today’s PanAm Hostco decision approving the new PanAm stadium investment in Hamilton:

“I’d like to congratulate Hamilton City Council and Mayor Bob Bratina for successfully landing this important investment in our City.

Having a world-class large audience facility in Hamilton will allow for a wide range of regional, national, and international sporting events to be held here successfully.
