Supreme Court says denies bid to appeal Toronto Mayor Rob Ford conflict ruling

No, you may not re-try Toronto Mayor Rob Ford in relation to a conflict of interest case that nearly saw him thrown from office last year.

The Supreme Court of Canada stated it would not hear an appeal in the case. It made the decision in a Thursday announcement that, as is custom, did not include a reason for the decision.

The decision puts to bed a 15-month saga that that saw Ford found guilty of a conflict charge stemming from the questionable collection of donations to a private charity, ordered out of office and later vindicated on appeal.

More to come.
