Premier Doug Ford says a fundraising gala his Progressive Conservative party is hosting in Toronto tonight does not constitute cash-for-access to his ministers.
The event, dubbed the 2019 Leader's Dinner, is charging $1,250 a plate and is being criticized by the opposition parties.
Tonight's gala comes after Ford's government changed fundraising rules to allow the premier and cabinet ministers to attend such events.
