I attended many of those presentations nearly a decade ago. They were quick to bring the facts and thorough. And eager to dismiss the idea that the tunnel wasn't needed. Left me wondering where these folks were before. But , of course, they can't speak out against their elected bosses.

So you’re saying bureaucrats hated the proposals and recommendations they were producing under Chareli while secretly preparing recommendations to make under O’Brien?
I guess that is possible, but it seems pretty unlikely to me. Municipal officials have a fair bit more autonomy than in the Federal Government.
