Guaranteed, if you pulled that kind of project here, people would riot because it's different and nothing that 'fits' in Calgary. From the projects that I've seen turned down because the general public thinks they know what is best and don't want it, it's truly unfortunate.
First - it's the public's money so they should have a say.
Second - I think you are under-estimating Calgarians. It's not about what the bridge looks like - its about the process that was used to arrive at this point.
