Until a few days ago, it seemed Patrick Brown had been virtually wiped off Ontario’s political map. But after two weeks of near-silence, Brown is back, conducting a multi-pronged campaign to clear his name of charges he calls “malicious and false,” as one element of those accusations crumbled Wednesday. Meanwhile, back in the limelight, Brown has cast an awkward shadow over a party that in recent days has excitedly trumpeted its future without him. Brown alleged on Facebook they had been housemates at one point. Matthew Garrow, a CTV spokesman, did not say what, if any, relationship there had been between the journalists and interview subjects.
