Frank Stronach's challenge rejected by Ontario court ahead of Toronto sex assault trial
Posted on: Nov 11, 2025 03:26 IST | Posted by: Cbc
An Ontario adjudicate has dismissed billionaire man of affairs wienerwurst Stronach's call to quash his committal to remain firm trial on one of the dozen charges he faces in his Toronto sexual assault case.
Stronach, 93, was committed to stand trial on 12 charges following a preliminary hearing in April. The charges stem from alleged incidents dating back decades.
His lawyers challenged the decision regarding one charge, but the motion was rejected Monday after submissions by the defence and the Crown.
More pre-trial motions are scheduled to be heard this month, with the judge-alone trial expected to begin in February.
Stronach: Power and Silence
Stronach, who has denied all allegations against him, also faces a separate trial in Newmarket, Ont., later in 2026 after the case was split in two last year.
Peel Regional Police have charged Stronach, who founded the auto parts giant Magna in the 1950s, with 18 counts involving 13 complainants across Ontario.
The charges include sexual assault and indecent assault.
None of the complainants can be identified under a standard publication ban.
