Also, who cares who the Flames backed in the election? How is it any different then any lobby or interest groups throughout the history of democracy? I never said it is right, but its not like its illegal.
Do I have problem paying more to get this done, as someone who will use the facility...not at all. Curious where you got the guaranteed 20% though.

Well the general public will care if it ends up looking like the Flames tried to buy the mayor's office so they could be given a handout. Suffice to say that's not going to bring more people on side with folding to the Flames. And I believe the number was 39% want the city to budge, so it's not an even split. Those undecideds likely become strong city supporters if the donor list goes how most of us think it will.
A 20% increase is just what we've seen in most other markets. The Flames of course aren't opening a new barn to not make much more money. There's scenarios where the increase could be massive.

Unless I am forgetting the poll number, 48% is indeed the plurality. So yeah I do, thanks for asking.
