I was at assiniboine park today with the family and they had the foot bridge closed due to flooding, the assiniboine is very high right now.

It was pretty cool to see actually, the water isn't over the bridge but pretty close at the north end of the bridge.

Natives are mad that they are not protected at all during these floods.
http://www.winnipegsun.com/news/manitoba/2009/04/20/9177281.html

Why o Why o Why would someone have not built ring dikes around the communities after the last flood? Did the federal government not cough up money for flood protection?

anyway... Peguis alone probably has 120 home flooded. Yeah that really aint gonna be a good thing.
