Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne stopped by a high school in Toronto to tout her government's free tuition plan for low-income students, but it was a science experiment that really stole the show.
Pink blob takes over @Kathleen_Wynne's visit to Jarvis Collegiate. #onpoli
The Toronto Star's Robert Benzie tweeted a photo of the premier posing next to two students and their chemistry experiment, which he artfully described as a "pink blob."
Computer, enhance image.
Enhance further.
People had questions.

OK, let's be honest: It looks like a giant penis. But it seems like it was just a well-timed photo. Here's another reporter's photo of the same experiment, just a fraction of a second later.
A successful explosion.
The students were showing the premier an example of the classic foam volcano experiment, which results in an explosion of coloured, soapy foam when you mix the ingredients together. It's just a coincidence that it also, for a split second, looked like a big pink dong.
In conclusion: penis. 😏
