This bridge is something for all Calgarians and helps a bit more with tourism. I like the bridge and I don't live anywhere near downtown.

As a matter of fact, seeing this bridge now makes me want to vote against any alderman that had opposed it.
Is it really going to help tourism? Are more people going to come here to see a bridge?
I don't buy it. I get it helps the overall look of the city - but that's about it.

Again part of the problem is not the price tag but also how the worked was doled out.
