Quebec govt plans $870M Olympic Stadium roof repair for revitalized east end, projects $1.5B tourism, event revenue over 10 years.

The Quebec government plans to invest $870 million in repairing the Olympic Stadium's roof as part of an action plan to revitalize Montreal's east end. The new roof, scheduled for a four-year construction period beginning this summer, will be fixed, rigid, and feature a transparent glass hoop, allowing more daylight and a view of the night sky. The government expects the revitalized stadium to attract larger events and generate up to $1.5 billion from tourism and other sources over 10 years.
