Here's some things for our courts ponder:

There have been some disappointing cases, but the door is not shut. If we can ever get past emotions and totems and have these issues decided on fact and principle, we'd get different results, IMO.
The Ontario court didn't bother hearing the case due to the previous SCC ruling.

And yes it is disappointing, but it also directly affects S.26 of the charter.
