Edmonton aids Calgary in flood relief

While there is some relief in Calgary, there is also the dawning realization of how much work has to be done to clean up from this monster flood. Well, Calgary’s neighbour to the north is helping to shoulder some of that burden. Already the City of Edmonton has boots on the ground there. 100 EPS constables are riding with Calgary officers, taking some pressure off CPD. And today, 100 Edmonton Fire members hit the road with 12 pieces of equipment. Six Edmonton safety codes officers are assessing buildings in Calgary for flood damage; more Edmonton inspectors may join them this week, along with drainage crews. Besides 10 thousand sandbags, Edmontonians are also sending down scores of donations. The City asks you donate CASH ONLY for the next while.
