Jeff Wharton is a Canadian politician and former economic development minister in Manitoba. He was part of the Progressive Conservative government led by Heather Stefanson and faced scrutiny from the Manitoba ethics commissioner for his role in promoting the Sio Silica mining project shortly after the 2023 election loss. The report indicated that Wharton, along with Stefanson and Cliff Cullen, violated the Conflict of Interest Act by seeking approval for the project before the new government took office.
