Terry Ferguson, right, gets help from friend Peter McMaster to stack sandbags around his Bay Street home to hopefully keep out the flood waters of the St. John River in Saint John, N.B., on Wednesday, April 24.Owners of homes and cottages in the southern region of New Brunswick were suffering déjà vu Wednesday with the province shuttering local roads and a portion of the Trans-Canada Highway as it braced for yet another round of record flooding.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, visiting an evacuation centre in the hard-hit Gatineau area of Quebec, linked the floods to climate change and said Canadians need to adapt to the new reality. In New Brunswick, Greg MacCallum, director of the N.B. EMO, urged New Brunswickers to “be mindful of the stresses that are on other people as well as yourself." He urged patience at an afternoon update on river conditions and suggested people in Fredericton, where several streets have been flooded out, to work from home or stagger work areas to decrease congestion.He said: “This is a multiple-day event and it is going to continue for a number of days more.
Quebec Public Security Minister Geneviève Guilbault urged residents to remain vigilant and said it could be up to two weeks before the waters in flood-hit areas fully receded. The Coalition Avenir Québec government of Premier François Legault is offering up to $200,000 to people willing to leave their homes for good.

Well clearly it’s climate change, but so was that Lavalin fiasco. Pity that we can’t do burnt offerings to pacify the climate gods, apparently that just pisses them off.
That 13 billion sure is handy about now ya?
So when is Andrew Schneer going to visit these communities to talk about climate change and his plan?
Maybe, having a home or cottage in the flood plains wasn't such a good idea, after all?
