Well the Ontario Superior Court has ruled that its not unconstitutional so if still not happy I guess Federal Court and the Supreme Court of Canada is their next stop. Let them waste their money if they wish.

The lawyers will be paid irrespective of whether they have anything to do. At least, this way, they earn their salary:p
