The idea of adding a permanent roof to the Big O's captured a lot of imaginations and frustrations since the news went out. There's still time to see whether or not this plan will actually translate into action, but for now, we're left wondering where this all came from.

But don't go taking our word for it: The minister of tourism Caroline Proulx couldn't stop talking about it last year, and our selected headlines this week feature a local economist suggesting the same thing.
