Ford says the integrity commissioner cleared him over the event, and the commissioner's office has said that based on information provided, Ford had no knowledge of gifts given to his daughter and son-in-law and that there was no discussion of government business at the event.
Ford says today that it's ``ridiculous'' that there continues to be so many questions from journalists over an event with $150 tickets.
When asked how much money was raised at the event from developers and who the money went to, Ford said his family home has an open-door policy and ``the boys took care of that.''
Ontario's integrity commissioner and auditor general are conducting separate investigations into the government's decision to open protected Greenbelt lands up to housing development.
Both Ford and Housing Minister Steve Clark have denied any wrongdoing and tipping off developers.
