No olympic facts — just estimates

-

Please stop calling the bid informatio­n “facts.” They are not facts, they are estimates, and cannot under any normal use of the word be considered facts.

They may be facts after the Olympics, when the bills are paid, but it is entirely misleading to call them facts at this stage.

Estimates is the honest term, and to use facts may be considered an attempt to bias the public.

Please let us, at least, be honest with our terminolog­y. Keith Todd, Calgary
