Ralph Klein, the redneck jackass lush Premiere of Alberta, got loaded last night and walked into a homeless shelter and started shouting at the residents to get jobs.
At that moment, 26-year-old Mark Shea, who recently moved here from Halifax to find work, walked into the shelter. He had just finished the late shift at a gas station and wanted a warm bed for the night.
“I thought, ‘What’s Ralph Klein doing here?’ ” Shea said. “Lo and behold, there he was in the middle of six or seven guys, yelling at them at the top of his lungs.”
Klein was slurring, according to Shea. And he said the premier was shouting outrageous things as he leaned on his driver, telling the residents of the shelter to get jobs.
Shea said he was offended.
“I don’t drink or do drugs and he’s telling me to get a job when I already have one. If I wouldn’t have gotten arrested, I would have slugged him.”
