A poll sounds like a good idea. If there is a certain budget for a stadium I would think that a partial roof (basic flat slanting roof) would be more important in the rainy maritime climate than expensive folding seats since it will likely only be used 50 times a year.

A couple questions that I would ask are:
1) will fans in Halifax accept bench style seating? (I think this would help keep the cost down.)
2) How important is a partial roof? Will fans become weary of watching events with little protection from the rain (what do SMU fans think about watching games in the rain at the SMU stadium)?
