A Toronto judge has reserved his decision on whether or not to allow defence lawyers to view a video that appears to show Mayor Rob Ford smoking crack cocaine.

The lawyers  for a man who is seen posing with the mayor – in a widely published photograph – argue that  their client’s reputation has been harmed by being associated with the video.

Tomorrow, Toronto city councillor Denzil Minnan-Wong is expected to put forward a non-binding motion that will demand that Rob Ford take a leave of absence.

That’s something Ford’s brother Doug says isn’t necessary.
