Of course he can lie about it (and I suspect he would if it meant him staying in power)....but we have no tangible evidence that he has or did at this point....none.
That's how it works in a free society....innocent until proven guilty.
Fortunately for the people of Toronto there is a public court of opinion where that doesn't matter however, and they have a very easy course of action to punish him with when the next election comes. Until that time though, or until the alleged video is secured and declared as real, accusations are just that...accusations.
No one should be forced to resign there elected position on pure supposition though. If that was the case we would see politicians getting accused of any number of things at every level of government with the conclusion of them leaving their post....all without tangible proof of wrongdoing. A very slippery slope that no one should want to see in any democracy.
