Actually it's mostly the question is poorly phrased and leading. If you asked the question the way it should be asked...

"Would you be willing to have your property taxes and other taxes increased to host the Olympics"

....it would likely be 28% at best that approve. Ironically, you now have to root for the NDP and Nenshi to be in power in 2019 for it happen. Which is hilarious to me.

My point of course is they will be getting voted out and won't be around to make the debt $100 billion. Election is in 2019, same year the bid is due. And this poll was taken before the NDP budget came out, I suspect that 62% would be at least 10% lower after people saw the budget.
