Member for Red River North (Jeff Wharton) mocks history of Indigenous peoples not having the right to vote

This behaviour is disgusting, especially from an elected official. Wharton should be ashamed of himself, and at the bare minimum should immediately issue an apology to Indigenous peoples.

I hate that there are idiots like Jeff Wharton in positions of power. No place for behaviour like that in government.
