About Ralph Klein
Ralph Klein is one of Alberta's most iconic former premiers
and remains one of the most popular Calgary mayors in recent history. Klein, a former TV journalist, was a hugely popular provincial leader but was also controversial in his priorities and in his views. Some see Klein's legacy as a cutter and a slasher, while others see him as a leader who was able to make the tough calls that led to Alberta becoming debt-free.
Klein was Mayor of Calgary from 1980 to 1989 and Premier of Alberta from 1992 to 2006.
He retired from politics that same year.
