Its called " your personal responsibility " to find out. And, to
get there. Or not.

Their site also doesn't list driving routes and times from
Ontario, Canada, nor any gas prices along the way...
I'm cool with that...

The question is absurd. Fans are not such children that they
must have all their way(s) be taken care of FOR them.

Would YOU be wiling and able to pay the full member****p cost
of a not only held-at-urban-but-much-costlier facility, couped with
how lower the member****p numbers get due to the locale ?

I suspect that you would... not.

Any con that sees fit to cater to the demogaphic that can only
go if there is some wiggle room in a fan's monthly mac-and-cheese
budget will soon find that dealers and artists are not interested in
a con with a poverty level attending demographic.
