how long do references take for the govt?

I'm quite experienced with how job offers work in the private sector. But I'm being considered for a job at the City of Toronto.

1/ if reference checks are being done, does that mean this person essentially has the position, barring a bad reference, or do multiple candidates get their references checked?
2/ how long after references are received is an offer made?

i've been waiting and waiting and it's getting pretty anxious! 3 business days since the last reference was received.
