Premier Ralph Klein has apologized for throwing a booklet at a page in the legislature during an emotional debate Wednesday over Alberta’s health care reforms.
The 17-year-old page had delivered a soft-covered, 80-page booklet of Liberal policy proposals to Klein’s desk in the assembly, when he grabbed it and tossed it at her.
The premier was heard to say, “I don’t need this crap,” referring to the booklet that was sent to him by the opposition as they fired pointed questions over the Third Way health reforms. […]
He apologized. But enough already. Get while the going’s good, I think.
