Vaughan inflamed by Ford's criticism
Toronto Councillor Adam Vaughan said he may sue one of his colleagues over what he says are "false," "defamatory" comments made on a radio show yesterday morning.
Vaughan (Trinity-Spadina) rose in council yesterday to say he intends to sue a councillor for accusing him of knowingly appointing a man to a city committee who made a donation to his campaign.
Councillor Rob Ford (Etobicoke North) later identified himself as the one who had made the comments on AM640. Ford said in council the candidate had donated $250 to Vaughan's campaign.
Vaughan told reporters during a break from council there was "one little iota of truth" that a man had been shortlisted by senior city staff as a candidate for the city's sinking fund committee who had also donated to his campaign.
Vaughan said "I had never met this person."
