Doug Ford cleared of wrongdoing after developers attend daughter's ... (CBC.ca)

Ontario Premier Doug Ford said Friday it is "ridiculous" that he is facing questions about reports that developers attended and donated to a pre-wedding ...

The commissioner's office added this sort of opinion is separate from an inquiry as to whether another MPP has contravened the act. "I went to the integrity commissioner, he cleared it 1,000 per cent," Ford said. But anyways, it was cleared with the integrity commissioner." "Based on the information provided to the Commissioner about the events: specifically, that the Premier had no knowledge of gifts given to his daughter and son-in-law; and, that there was no discussion of government business at either of the events, the Commissioner was of the opinion that there was nothing to indicate non-compliance with the Members' Integrity Act related to these events." CBC Toronto has not independently verified that reporting. Ford told reporters earlier in the day that it was "ridiculous" that he was facing questions over the stag-and-doe party, which he called a "personal" matter.

Promoteurs immobiliers invités au mariage d'une fille de Doug Ford ... (ICI.Radio-Canada.ca)

Le Commissaire à l'intégrité de l'Ontario a conclu que Doug Ford n'a pas enfreint de règles en place.

À la fin janvier, plusieurs mois après le mariage et à la suite de questions soulevées par un média, le premier ministre et des membres de son bureau sont entrés en contact avec le Commissaire à l'intégrité pour lui demander conseil. Il promet que toutes les règles éthiques qui guident le travail des députés seront respectées. Les partis d’opposition et des groupes citoyens allèguent que certains promoteurs clés ont été avertis de ces plans. Doug Ford est sur la défensive suivant la confirmation que des promoteurs immobiliers ont participé au mariage ainsi qu'aux célébrations prénuptiales d'une de ses filles, il y a quelques mois. C'est ridicule, a lancé Doug Ford, visiblement agacé par les questions concernant la liste d'invités au mariage d'une de ses quatre filles. David Wake a reçu des informations concernant certains invités présents, décrits comme des amis de la famille Ford.
