That tells me that they've received much more negative feedback than positive.
I looked on the city of calgary website a few days ago there was a link to a public survey they had done to gauge interest in the bid. The link is gone but there is still information about it in the report Rick Hansen put together.....

Page 42 says the response showed 65% of citizens support the bid. It bothers me that the link is no longer there. And if they've done the survey work why are they not standing by it? It seems like they did a half ass job in the first place just to get the answer they wanted.
