Judge Belobaba and Doug Ford

ford: Indeed, Belobaba's ruling is, to many, a startling judicial decision, and it would be possible to craft a nuanced, constitutionally coherent case against it, according to Rabble. But that is not what Doug Ford is doing. Those experts are surprised Judge Belobaba believes the negative impact of Bill 5 on the right of free expression in Toronto would be so severe he is compelled to strike down the legislation in its entirety. As they hastily reintroduce Bill 5, this time invoking the notwithstanding clause, Ford and his acolytes do not offer reasoned legal or constitutional arguments. Ford says he was elected while Judge Belobaba was not. Instead, they engage in ad hominem attacks, simplistic and illogical arguments, and non-sequiturs. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
