Indicating a preference during an open, competitive bidding process could have left the city open to tens of thousands of dollars in legal costs (if not more). If Tim Horton's had bid and won, the other bidders would have had grounds to sue.

Ferguson comes from construction, he would have been involved in hundreds of bids, he should know better. When he was at Dufferin and somebody at the City involved with selecting winning bidders had gone on the radio and said they hoped Pigott got the contract over Dufferin since they were such a Hamilton institution, you can believe Ferguson wouldn't have been happy about it. That's probably why this stings him so much, he should be embarrassed.
