First off, I want to recognize that I know there are insurance programs for homeowners or businesses that are going to rebuild. I think what people need to understand is that the insurance companies will only rebuild to the level of when the building burned down—whatever the building code was at that time. What I am saying is that, if we're going to be smart and we're going to rebuild, we have to build fire smart.
Jasper Park Lodge is a prime example. A fire went through that area 50 years ago, and it caused serious damage to JPL, Jasper Park Lodge. Because they fire-smarted their area is why JPL stands today.
Every resident who wants to rebuild and live in Jasper should have the opportunity to fire-smart, but the province and the federal government have to step up with the financial adjustment between what insurance will pay for and what it will cost them to fire-smart. However, we also need to make sure we change the building code so that every community and every building is fire-smarted.
