Sask government member makes sexist comment, resigns as premier's secretary

REGINA — A backbencher with the Saskatchewan government has resigned his post after calling an Opposition member a "dumb bitch" during debate.

Mike Chisholm of the Saskatchewan Party has quit his job as a legislative secretary to Premier Brad Wall after directing the comment to NDP member Deb Higgins.

Chisholm used the sexist remark during debate earlier this week at an intergovernmental affairs and justice committee meeting.

The remark wasn't noticed by committee members at the time, but was audible enough to be picked up and printed in the official transcript of proceedings.

Higgins says the remark was extremely personal and is a blow to all women in politics.

Chisholm, who will remain as member of the legislature for Cut Knife-Turtleford, says his words should never have been "thought or spoken."
