The $1,000 per plate event – dinner is his first Fundraiser as an Ex-President beyond friendly Dallas environs – - what’s the mood in that region of Canada ? ?

from CALGARY HERALD story-coverage last month

Bush will share his “thoughts on his eight momentous years in the Oval Office” and will discuss “the challenges facing the world in the 21st century,” according to the event invitation.

Invites to the event, which feature a profile shot of Bush’s right side, began to circulate in Calgary at the end of last week.

Someone familiar with the president’s schedule has confirmed that Bush “has a number of events in the pipeline in different venues, both in the U.S. and internationally.”

Kelli Wight, a board member with Republicans Abroad Canada, says that Bush’s Calgary speech will likely be the first of many.

“He’s going to be doing a lot of these speeches,” she says.

“That’s how he’s going to make money.”

Though event organizer Andy McCreath won’t comment on Bush’s fee, the ticket price or the number of invitees, he says he expects roughly 1,500 people to attend.

I have realized that the owner of the New York Yankees George Steinbrenner has high expectations for his ball club, the New York Yankees. Every year, it seems that he wants his team to Win The World Series and if you do not win to his expectations, you face consequences
Also, why does Steinbrenner have high expectations that the owners of most other franchises. For example, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys Jerry Jones does not have consequences when the Cowboys do not make the post season. and the Owner of the NBA Detroit Pistons William Davidson does not have consequences for the team not winning the NBA Championship.
Why does New York Yankees owner have such high expectations for the Yankees baseball club when other team owners in other professional sports and Major League Baseball do not expect that everything has to be perfect?
