Patrick Brown emerged for the first time on social media Tuesday afternoon since his departure as leader of Ontario's Progressive Conservatives over sexual misconduct allegations, tweeting that "the truth will come out." "I am immensely grateful for all the support expressed to my family and myself," Brown wrote. — @brownbarrieBrown resigned early on Jan. 25 following allegations of sexual misconduct by two women. Brown called a news conference just before 10 p.m. that night where he denied the allegations, calling them "categorically untrue." Then, only hours later, he stepped down, roiling the Progressive Conservative party ahead of the June provincial election.
