        History

        The Stadium Study Committee was established in 1983 by Premier Bill Davis to examine various matters related to a possible domed stadium for Ontario. In specific terms, the Committee was asked to consider all proposals that had been developed and offer suggestions and recommendations regarding: the potential uses for such a stadium; the most appropriate site; the infrastructure requirements; the costs of such a facility and related infrastructure; the financial requirements of ongoing operation and; the possible methods of funding such an undertaking.

        In February 1984, the Committee submitted its report to Premier Davis, which included its final recommendations. In 1989, a domed stadium known as Skydome was opened along Toronto's waterfront. The stadium is currently known as the Rogers Centre.
