The November edition of LiveWire-d in Calgary took a bit of a different turn.

The plebiscite on whether or not Calgary should host the 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games took centre stage and we digested the Nov. 13 results and dedicated a full show to analyzing the outcome and what’s next for Calgary.

Civic leaders share their thoughts on the plebiscite result and give insight into what Calgary might focus on next and even whether or not the city would pursue a bid for the 2030 Winter Games.
