Toronto police Chief Bill Blair has served Coun. Doug Ford with a notice of defamation, for comments made earlier this month that accused the chief of leaking news about an investigation involving Mayor Rob Ford.
"The chief said in a statement last week he was prepared to take legal action and he has done that," said Mark Pugash, a spokesman for Blair.
Pugash said the chief is seeking a public apology and a retraction.
Earlier this month, Rob Ford was served with a subpoena to testify in the extortion case of the mayor's friend and former driver Alexander (Sandro) Lisi.
At the time, Doug Ford said the move was politically motivated "payback" and that the police went to the media before telling the mayor about the subpoena.
"You wonder why we need a change at the top? This is why we need a change at the top," said Doug Ford at the time, referring to Blair, whose contract is not being renewed.
Blair immediately threatened legal action and accused the councillor, who is managing his brother's re-election campaign for mayor, of lying.
