TORONTO — The leader of Ontario’s Progressive Conservatives, a largely unknown politician who polls suggest could be the province’s next premier, says social conservative issues will be off limits at his party’s much anticipated policy convention. There will be no sex-ed policy resolutions at the convention either, Brown said in the interview. Carbon tax is another policy that will be off limits at the party policy convention. They bristle at the notion with complaints both privately and publicly through blog posts and websites such as Axe the Carbon Tax. A former PC caucus member who was either expelled or resigned cited the carbon tax as a main reason for joining the fringe Trillium Party.
