Klein shows he's worth it

Klein shows he's worth it Re " Resurrection of lake a coincidence: Klein," Herald, Sept. 21. Just when many people are questioning whether our MLAs are worth their self- inflicted 30- per- cent pay raise, Environment Minister Ralph Klein provides us with evidence that he, at least, is worth every penny. Klein tells us that Buffalo Lake, just down the road from Premier Don Getty's proposed new residence, is " a mess." He goes on to explain that " the prob­lem isn't with Mr. Getty." Klein lays the blame for this environ­mental mess squarely on the shoulders of " God." God created the problem. Yikes! As if we didn't have enough problems trying to cope with all the man- made pollutants and garbage! Now we have to clean up God's messes as well. But don't despair. The Environ­ment Department, under the lead­ership of Ralph Klein, " can fix the problem." . . . And I thought Getty had guts . . . LORNA STEFANICK Calgary.
