I think when certain issues clearly strike a chord with the voting public politicians should involve the voters more directly. It was clear early on people weren't happy with the direction the whole project was taking and city hall just chose to ignore it.
Ultimately its our money. That can't be under-estimated. If we aren't happy with how it's being spent we have a right to voice our displeasure.
