Ontario PCs need to sort out their position on Sex Ed

Kathleen Wynne says Patrick Brown ‘has a lot to sort out’ on sex-ed

The Progressive Conservatives’ rookie leader needs to get his office in order after his party’s sex education flip-flop flap, says Premier Kathleen Wynne.

“Patrick Brown has a lot to sort out in terms of what did or didn’t happen,” she told reporters Tuesday at Queen’s Park.

Wynne suggested it’s implausible that Brown was out of the loop when the Tories promised in writing — under his signature — to axe the updated sex-education curriculum.

“When there’s a major change in our office — or when there’s a policy decision — I know about that decision. And I authorize it or not,” the premier said.

It was her first public comment about the Progressive Conservatives’ internal troubles since they circulated 13,000 signed letters during the Sept. 1 Scarborough-Rouge River byelection promising to “scrap” the updated health curriculum if elected in 2018.

Is the PC position that the signature of the leader is meaningless?

Don't look at the lies and corruption over here or your sky high hydro rates but look at a slight misrepresentation of the opposition leader about something inconsequential over there.

Walter, I think you should get out and meet a woman in real life. Being scared by every woman isn't good for you.

Conservatives,the pro ignorance party.

You should show your wife a little more respect, especially online for all to read, unless you were referring to Wynne, and even then.

Can I buy a vowel to figure out who gave you the reddie?

Maybe, Kathleen Wynne should suggest some positions.

Sex Ed is more important than a small increase in hydro rates.

No, it's not. You could take sex education away entirely and life goes on. It is a luxury, not a necessity. Somehow, the human race made it through the last million years without the Ontario Curriculum version of human sexality being taught to them.

High hydro rates shut down employers, force them to move to cheaper hydro juristictions leaving unemployed bread winners and their attached human misery behind them. The consequuences uncompetitiveness are quite serious and the net results are McJobs for the lucky, only.

 

[Danbones]

What? You expect Wynne to say something nice about the opposition leader, Brown?
LOL
do you know anything about politics at all?

Wynne is a politician who just said what you want to hear...
bet you she fishes a mean worm

People complain about Hydro rates even though they can afford them.

Sex Ed is more than just education about sex.

 

[Curious Cdn]

You can live with or without sex ed. If someone loses their breadwinning job because their employer decided to leave the most expendive electicity on the continent behind (and by the way, it is happening right now with well-paying, value added jobs disappearing and shyte lousy service sector jobs replacing them). Unemployed parents : commit suicide, can drink themselves silly, break up their marriages ... the consequences of the unemployment created by sky high hydro rates are far greater than the confusion of gender identity, or whatever urgent sexual crisis Ontario is suddenly experiencing. They are nowhere near the same scale of urgency.

 

[mentalfloss]

Stop making the false equivalence.

No one is losing anything.

This is just more complaining from entitled conbots that expect a government handout.

Wrong. Ontario is hemmoraging good manufacturing jobs.

The only reason that sex ed is an issue at all is that the Premier herself has a "different" orientation and is therefore trying to convince the rest of the world to respect it. It is a non-issue, driven by the Premier, personally.

This is just more complaining from entitled conbots that expect a government handout.

This has nothing to do with handouts. It is a another symptom that a grossly inefficient and increasingly ineffectual government that is years passed its sell-by date, needs to be fired. That's what the polls are saying, too.

Manufacturing has been on its way out for a long time now thanks to NAFTA and China. They are better at it but that's not a good thing. Manufacturing and resource extraction are low level sectors of the economy.

An advanced economy moves on to services and knowledge-based industry.

Anyway, it's just a cacophony of complainers from the boonies who want a few bucks.

Oh good! Wave goodbye! Another Gliberal doesn't really care if you have a job!

What's REALLY important is that it's okay and natural to have "feelings" about your hockey team mate.


How frivilous, of you.

To be fair, NAFTA merely accelerated the inevitable. Protectionism merely stalls the inevitable.

That said, the solution is not protectionism but better education.

Given Canada's functional illiteracy rate, I'd say sex ed is a low priority in the grand scheme of things.

Improving literacy in schools would be a far better investment.

Those feelings are actually what fuel the economy.
