More vocal opposition to the proposed location.

It's probably evil to mention it, but I think when those folks say that it's a bad location for Cambridge, they really mean that it's a bad location for Galt.

Not really great for Preston since it requires going around a chokepoint in the city to get there. For Hespeler the 401 doesn't really have an interchange in it, it runs on the outside of Hespeler and the only on ramps in that direction are on townline road (going backwards on the very edge of Hespeler) or on Hwy 24, actually outside of Hespeler. It's not really close to much in Cambridge. Add to it that they are talking about closing down 2 existing ice pads that are located in the city to out there it doesn't help. For anyone who gets around on transit it isn't an easy ride for anyone.

Usually for buildings like this councillors will talk about all the economic spin off that is going to happen, but in this case they can't.

City of Cambridge complains about regional courthouse being created in center of region.
City of Cambridge complains about Cambridge sports facility not being located in center of Cambridge.

The complaint about the courthouse probably more had to do with the one in Cambridge closing.
