Toronto to have 25 wards, eventually.

With the notwithstanding clause, and a majority in the legislature, the new bill will pass.

There's actually a lot less on this to say than I expected. There are no parts of the Constitution that could be used to over-ride this. Section 3 wont cut it.

The new candidate deadline is 48 hours after the bill passes, which means there will still be time to file for those who did not yet file.

Problems could include that the Clerk could throw out all past nominations when the court ordered the 25 wards reversed.

In short; this is a big mess, will only get messier, but, nothing can be done until the next Ontario Election.
