Patrick Brown posted this earlier today

I will scrap the Firearms Act in its entirety and work with experts — including law-abiding firearm owners — to replace it with a new law that takes protecting our streets just as seriously as does defending the rights of Canadians.

He also has had so many allegations against him and is currupt af, you might as well throw your vote out the window and hand the election to the liberals.

Can you elaborate? Every politician has allegations and he hasn’t stood out as being noticeably worse than everyone else, at least for me

Yeah np, he here's the article, https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/patrick-brown-resigns-ontario-pc-1.4503040. He was also notorious for doing shady deals when he was on barrie council until people got fed up with him then he moved to Brampton and became mayor there and I've heard some stories from people there is aswell. So you just imagine what the liberals will dig up on him.

i dont know, it seems like she has regrets but did he force himself on her? Seems like she wasn't interested and he stopped but she kept working for him because it was a good job? am i wrong? I dont care from brown but just wondering

I don't know if he did or not the article doesn't go into great detail about it, just that he kept making advances toward her, but she did continue to work for him. The whole thing ended up getting dropped. And he tried sueing ctv news for 8 million for defamation but that also ended up getting dropped. From a political point of view there's more then enough ammo for other parties to use against him come election time. I know I don't trust him.
