A MULTI-BENEFIT PROJECT AND A MAJOR INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY THAT SHOULD NOT BE WASTED!
Were You Affected by the 2013 Floods?
Most, if not all Calgarians, were affected in one way or another by the flood event… and many residents living in surrounding communities were hit hard. Think of the lost lives, the massive disruption to daily life, the mental stress and suffering, and $6 billion in damages!
A dangerous flood could happen unexpectedly and more than once in the same year…

“From City of Calgary Website”
“…this does not mean that if a 100-year flood happened this spring, it wouldn’t happen again for another 100 years. It could happen again in the following year or even twice or more in any given year”

Thus, we need a strong, comprehensive and decisive plan of action
