I think the only way a 'No' vote gets overturned is if more funding gets announced.
And not a skimpy amount of funding, something stupid like:
'Feds announce in addition to previous funding commitments for the Olympics, it will provide: Green Line funding to complete all phases including an airport connector, putting the Red Line underground downtown, additional funding to flood mitigation, and a 'no questions asked' $200M that can be used for anything sports related be it professional *wink-wink* or amateur, and ramming through TMX and Canada East regardless of the Constitutional crises it may cause, pending council overruling and voting yes on the Olympics' then everybody would probably be pretty thrilled that it is a non-binding plebiscite
