HA! Sooooo Perfect! This makes my year. It looks so good on Klein.
Is this just the beginning in Alberta?
Some people can take only so much political pap.
Surely, Klein must know that this assault was brought on because of his BS.
Notice that by attacking the intelligence of his assailant he was able to avoid any real criticism?
I'm willing to bet the young man had a very good reason for the pieing.

(From the article)
"It speaks to his education or lack thereof to do this in front of 3,000
or 4,000 people," the premier said.

He intends to press charges, he said.

"If I want to say "Let the poor fellow go' that gives everyone free rein to do this kind of thing or worse," he said.

Chretien was hit in the face with a cream pie in Charlottetown in August 2000. Evan Wade Brown served eight days in jail for assault.

(3 square meals, color TV, no work for 8 days makes it all seem worthwhile.)

Since when did Klien insult any homeless dude?
And could you provide a reference to your claim.

To be fair the Edmonton Sun checked into the story and got the truth from two people at the shelter.

These two people were in the hall way when Ralph happened by. Klein was a bit lit even he attested to that
At any rate Ralph thought thes guys were stuck for a place to sleep and so he offered them hotel money.

It was a third person that was hurling insults at Ralph to whom Ralph told to get a job.

Since he turned up drunk at midnight at an Edmonton shelter for homeless men and that was a mission.
