We have no idea where Ontario Progressive Conservative Leader Patrick Brown really stands on the issue of Premier Kathleen Wynne’s sex-ed curriculum and we doubt he does either.
Over the past few days he has twisted himself into a pretzel, at first telling voters by mail in Thursday’s Scarborough-Rouge River byelection that he would scrap it, then saying he made a mistake and supports it.
To us, it’s irrelevant whether Brown flip-flopped or if, as he now says, campaign staff sent out the original notice to voters without him seeing it.
Either he doesn’t know what he thinks, or he changes what he thinks according to the wind, or he doesn’t have control of staff.
