Is Hamilton's bid for the 2026 Commonwealth Games dead? Do we need a museum about Hamilton & its history? & Will we see an OHL season without fighting and checking?

There's a chance that Hamilton's bid to host the 2026 Commonwealth Games may never come to fruition. Why might this be and has the idea of hosting the event been killed off for good?\n\nGuest: Lou Frapporti, Chair, Hamilton 2026 Bid Committee\n\n-\n\nHamilton has a long and interesting history that can take you down a rabbit hole full of stories that can surprise and intrigue you. The kind of stories that would be right at home in a museum and that's exactly the idea that's been proposed to Hamilton's city council. But is it an idea that should be followed through on?\n\nGuest: Chad Collins, Ward 5 Councillor, City of Hamilton\n\n-\n\nOntario's government is saying that the OHL can have a 2020-21 season so long as it removes body checking and fighting. Considering those are two integral parts of the sport of hockey, can it be done or will someone find a way around this unusual request?\n\nGuest: Bubba O'Neil, Sports Anchor, CHCH-TV
