Costs change in almost every project like this. And, yeah, my business often operates that way. The parameters change.

They've addressed the costs increases and the Flames already agreed to eat most of them. This is no longer a 50-50 deal like it was when it was signed. The Mayor has said they've identified new costs, let's not ignore that.
Whether you or anyone here voted for her is not the question. It's more about how Calgary's being represented in a deal with a long standing partner. Vilifying them for not spending an extra 1.8% of the project costs is kinda dirty.
