As for those calling for a plebiscite (cough, cough attention-seeking Jeromy Farkas!), if every notable infrastructure development with some degree of public funding went to a plebiscite, nothing would ever get built in the city due both to the time involved in organizing plebiscites, as well as people who would instantly kybosh any potential increase in taxes for any reason.
Hopefully, that latter point isn't too significant. If the deal is more sensible than what was pitched for CalgaryNEXT, I say let's move forward.
