The insurance companies say "give me your money". They have probably upped the premiums for land fronting on the Great Lakes, too because of the melting Greenland ice sheet.
Oh Comrade Curious...........................................
did you not watch last nights LIE-beral news media releases??????????????????????????????
Our idiot Boy HAS JUST PROMISED to set up.....................................
LOW COST govt supplied flood insurance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What this means is that ordinary tax payers are GOING TO SUBSIDIZE..................................
people living on the EAST COAST................................................
where continental drift is behind much coastal erosion..............................
so that people CAN CONTINUE LIVING on a shoreline that is slipping into the sea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Even more ABSURD...........................................
the NEW LIE-beral fund will also be available to people living on Lakes Ontari-owe and Erie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And in RELATED NEWS.........................a Cdn rep from the Joint Commission that oversees water levels on the Great Lakes came
onto The Agenda- the TVO channel talk show hosted by Steve Paiken.................................
and the guy was there to DEFEND HIS Commission...........................
and DENY that recent changes in how the Commission chooses to handle water levels..........................
MIGHT BE TO BLAME .......................................
for high Great Lakes water levels!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The goof admitted changes had been made but denied they were to blame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Instead the guy cited heavy rainfall and rapid snow melt in spring as the culprits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND WE KNOW that deforestation promotes more rapid rainwater run off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And WE KNOW that paving over farm land promotes rainwater run off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the CONNECTION IS THIS......................................
I know people living in an OLD part of the Town of Whitby.......................................
and ONLY AFTER several huge new subdivisions were built north of their street..............................
meaning UP HILL from their location...........................................
they then had THREE FLOODS........................................
of raw sewage and rainwater in their basements IN FIVE YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the Town was SHAMED into building some rainwater holding ponds.................................
and of adding some extra storm water drain pipes.....................................
and wouldnt you know.........................................................
there has NOT BEEN ANOTHER FLOOD in nearly a DECADE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There is ample evidence to indicate THAT MOST OF THE FLOODING...............................
IN ALL OF NORTH AMERICA........................................
is the result of LIE-beral CHEAP ASS BULLSH+T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The same "flood problem" occurred in the old part of the town of Peterborough a decade back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The town had experienced significant growth..........................
with more and more trees cut down and more paved surfaces draining into the same old storm drains..............................
and one dark day it rained hard enough to overwhelm the antique and inadequate storm drain system.............................
and much of the old part of town was flooded!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND IS IT NOT AMAZING?????????????????????????????
Peterborough govt installed a bunch of new storm drains and rain water retention ponds..............................
and the old town DOES NOT FLOOD ANY MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In ONLY ONE THING was Trudope right- people living in flood prone areas SHOULD MOVE to higher ground!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But WE KNOW LIE-berals would rather BRIBE People who want to continue living beside the water...................................
RATHER THAN DOING THE RESPONSIBLE THING.......................................
and FORCING PEOPLE TO MOVE.......................................
for their own safety!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just as was done in Toronto after Hurricane Hazel killed 81 people in 1954...........................................
with virtually ALL the dead due to flooding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hazel forced the creation of the Conservation Authority to BAN people from either building or rebuilding in flood prone areas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LIE-berals know this of course but bribery using BORROWED MONEY for shameless vote buying is MUCH MORE FUN FOR
THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOO BAD about the ripped off tax payers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
