After recent rumors of MP in ME3 (see this thread), I digged up some more info.
CVG interviewed Bioware CEO Ray Muzyka on ME3 multiplayer.

Video Interview transcript:
Muzyka: We are exploring multiplayer modalities for all of our games. We are interested in the idea, but we have nothing to announce on that front other than what we show today.
Interviewer: Is it so that you can say that it is defenitely not in Mass Effect 3?
Muzyka: No, we have nothing to announce today at E3. We are dancing around a lot of features here, a lot of cool stuff and we always looking forward to the future when we can announce more things

Has anyone found some other recent sources concerning MP? 

Update 1: Courtesy of Cinemablend. Edit: Could be for future games though. (May 31th):

@javierabegazo: Why did you close my last thread?

They haven't exactly denied MP. So that's a concern. A simple 'no MP' would put to rest all doubts.

I thought they did deny it on GI.

I hope not, the grand finale to a trilogy is no time to be introducing an experimental multiplayer mode.

That basically means they have it but don't want to announce it yet. Javier's been in a rageful mood lately, and I don't know why. Your thread wouldn't be the first he closed down without reasonable cause.

And people wonder why I say I hate EA.

Do I need to explain my shiny new toy metaphor again?

Can someone explain to me why we need some lame and boring multiplayer bit no-one will look at let alone play a month or so after release?

It's gonna happen. Mark my words. I just hope it has its own separate disk so I can save it for when I cut carrots. More importantly, I hope it's not Edmonton developing it. For obvious reasons.

@theelementslayer: That was a while ago, with the latest statement I found on April 8th, before the delay. That's why I'm looking for recent sources.

They went from saying having your own dirty dozen and then they said build your own squad. Turned out it was our own... dirty dozen, plus one (Shepard). They also denied Kasumi. Need I say more?

Chris Priestly has thoroughly confirmed there will be no Multiplayer in ME3 or the ME trilogy.

HOWEVER, there will probably be a multiplayer game set in the ME universe in the future, but it will not be part of the ME trilogy.

I hope this is true.ME 3 will have no replay value without multiplayer real talk.

MP has been already denied by Bioware during Gameinformer coverage. Maybe they're looking for skilled MP programmers, because they're working on Mass Effect MMO ?

This. 

Notice the ad is for the Mass Effect 'franchise'. 

Other, later, games. Not ME3.

Chris wasn't sure at the time. Also, I would love it if it played out like you described (a MP spinoff in the future), but unfortunately EA disagrees.

I wouldn't mind a multiplayer spin off.
It's a little late to be hiring programmers to work on ME3.

Your last thread was closed because Multiplayer discussion concerning the Mass Effect Trilogy is moot. The Mass Effect Trilogy is a single player game. if you want to discuss what are the possibilities of a multiplayer game in the Mass Effect universe, please open a thread about it.

ME3 is part of the ME franchise. And all denials were made before the delay. It's not too much of a leap to think the delay was to give them more time to polish MP.

They said they didn't know how to implement multiplayer in Mass Effect. It's possible they figured it out by now.
