So, they would then complain that a bridge with a higher budget cost more then a bridge with a lower budget? Basically that's what it would boil down to at that point.
Of course, those people who are uninformed will complain, but there's no real justifiable reason to do so.
Do people care if Suncor talks about building a billion dollar oilsands project, then later decide that a project costing two billion is a better option? If CMLC decides to build a bridge that would cost $50 million, it would basically be the same thing as that.
