DOUG FORD WIN: 25 WARDS IN TORONTO

  Blatchford, NP: Unfair doesn’t equal unconstitutional, and the judge who equated the two almost certainly got it wrong.
  So says Ontario’s top court, ruling Wednesday that when voters go to the polls in Toronto Oct. 22, they will do so in a 25-ward election.
  In other words, said the high court — albeit much more diplomatically — Belobaba got just about everything wrong: bleeding one Charter right into another which doesn’t even apply to city elections, equating unfairness with unconstitutionality and expanding the right to free expression with the non-existent right to a certain sort of platform.
