Arvay kicked BC government ass over Safe Injection sites, assisted suicide, sperm donors, and sex workers. He beat the law society, he beat the Federal government forcing them to not discriminate against sexual orientation, and he beat the School district over trying to enforce religious values. This guy is the Ronaldo of the legal profession when it comes to the Charter. He picks his clients because its not even about money to him. The government has lost to him so many times that they have nightmares of him. He's scarier with a better track record than Johnnie Cochran.
If this were a car race it would be like racing a Civic against a Bugatti. Sure you might win but I'm going to bet on the Bugatti. Arvay takes cases he knows he's going to kick ass in. The judge for this case already knows the ruling after seeing his name.

You are going to be sorely disappointed. Even in the unlikely event the government was to lose, public pressure would force further action from the Province or even the Feds. A complete ban on foreign ownership might be in order.
BTW, how is it that the plaintiff, one Jing Li, was able to secure employment in a Canadian non-profit, even though she was no longer a student and didn't bother to become a Permanent Resident or a Canadian citizen. Were there no Canadians or PRs available for the job? Surely her student visa had run out. I think forwarding this to the Minister of Citizenship & Immigration is in order.
