Okay.
On Halifax harbour in the Bedford Basin, a number of homes get flooded from the two rivers that come down from the harbour and from heavy rain. All three lead to a really high risk for a bunch of houses that have been there for a long time. We were trying to negotiate a buyout program when I was at the City of Halifax. We would use federal dollars, with the co-operation of the province, to buy out these houses, which is an approach...because I'd say these trends are really unaffordable over time.
Even with the national flood program, even with the co-operation of the insurance industry and federal backing, it's all taxpayer dollars. It's all homeowner dollars. We need to be thinking a little more, and I'm wondering if you are thinking more, about prevention, especially when these things are going to happen more often in more places and at worse levels.
I would be really interested to know whether this program will be looking at options for relocation for owners. Do you have any information on that right now?
