Check out Vancouver (City) v. Zhang if you're curious as to the possible implications of a strong-arm approach. Nenshi is handling this the right way.

I'm not so sure. I was one of the original "careful because of the charter" guys. On Friday though they reported on the radio that most of judges appeared likely to side with the municipalities. Couple that with the article posted above by Cowperson and I really wonder why were giving them anything.
The risk of their protest (from their viewpoint) was that there was no charter protection. If that comes to be the case, then its silly to still submit to demands, they should be shut down.
