Patrick Clown show notwithstanding, Ontario PCs favoured to win
The Patrick Clown Show continues to be the biggest political story in Canada – but the biggest provincial conservative party, the Ontario PCs, are still competitive.
How come?
The papers are brimming with stories about Patrick Brown. For instance: on Wednesday morning of last week, out of 13 provincial-politics-related clippings landing on staffers’ desks at Queen’s Park, fully 12 were about the man who wants to lead a Progressive Conservative caucus that wants nothing to do with him.
There was a news story about Brown dating an intern in his office – and then taking her on international trips, paid for by God knows who.
