Delusions, indeed

Perhaps Ryan Cleary would like to outline, what is the "argument, under the Terms [of Union], for as many as nine [seats in the House of Commons]"?

For the record, here are the relevant Terms:

APPLICATION OF THE CONSTITUTION ACTS

3. The Constitution Acts, 1867 to 1940, shall apply to the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador in the same way, and to the like extent as they apply to the provinces heretofore comprised in Canada, as if the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador had been one of the provinces originally united except in so far as varied by these Terms and except such provisions as are in terms made or by reasonable intendment may be held to be specially applicable to or only to affect one or more and not all of the provinces originally united.

REPRESENTATION IN PARLIAMENT

4. The Province of Newfoundland and Labrador shall be entitled to be represented in the Senate by six members, and in the House of Commons by seven members out of a total membership of two hundred and sixty-two.

5. Representation in the Senate and in the House of Commons shall from lime to time be altered or readjusted in accordance with the Constitution Acts, 1867 to 1940.

Term 5 is the key here: under what possible interpretation of Term 5 would Newfoundland and Labrador be entitled to nine members of the House of Commons?
