I received the same vague reply as Chris from Fielding. Here's one from Eadie that's probably worse.

I would remind all who believe a water park is not wanted at the Forks that a consultation with Winnipeggers in the late 1980’s indicated that we wanted the Forks to be a place for a water park. I believe in the survey, the water park was number one in terms of proposed facilities. Yes Winnipeg has grown since then, but an indoor water park is still a facility Winnipeggers want. Another location would be good at say the Convention Centre. However, there is no proposal at that location. I do not subscribe to locating a water park in suburbia as access is poor as in the football stadium.

I don't think a survey from the 80s is relevant and I don't think our 50,000 sq/ft waterpark will ever draw crowds of 30,000.
