They are elected officials and made an infrastructure decision, you're not going to be asked your opinion for every little thing. That's the way it is.

But this is something CLEARLY the public did want to weigh in on. What was the last issue Calgarians voted directly on? Fluoride? Why not put this one to a vote? It's not like the public is demanding it for "every little thing". It's actually pretty rare.
As much as people need "stop crying" - I frankly like the fact that the public for once is getting involved in an issue.
