If it just one toilet I am surprised they cancelled the flight. I have been on flights before where one of the LAVs was out of order and one time on an American Eagle DTW/ORD they did the flight with the only lav on board out of order. The gate agent made an announcement warning people the toilet was out of order before they started boarding.

What idiot would flush a diaper though??? It should be pretty easy to figure out who the guilty person is.
