Libel action against Mayor Ford is dismissed

A $6-million libel lawsuit against Mayor Rob Ford has been dismissed. The Toronto Sun reported Thursday that in a decision from Justice John Macdonald lawyers for Boardwalk Cafe owner George Foulidis failed to prove that comments Ford made alleging corruption damaged Foulidis’s reputation. “I welcome today’d decision by the Court to dismiss the Foulidis lawsuit against me. I will continue fighting to represent the best interests of Toronto taxpayers at City Hall. There is still a lot of work to be done and I will continue to focus on this,” said Ford in a statement. 680 News
