Wildfires are burning in Northern Ontario, Ottawa has severe flooding and the building of luxury homes on a flood plain is approved for phase 1. How can we be considering a phase 2 when there is insufficient ability to predict future weather events? We have photographic evidence of flooding of this area in the last 6 years and we still are ignoring the risks and future costs due to flooding How can the citizens and city be forced to bear the financial and emotional responsibility of this decision when they apposed the building of these homes and the city has a well thought out plan that addresses the real need for housing.
