...and we ended up with a flood control plan and the TRCA. It took us a few years but Kinsella's advice that we could learn much from our US cousins is a joke. What have they accomplished since Katrina?
Let's learn a lesson from Americans
Kinsella: If something like Hurricane Irene had hit Toronto, or Montreal, or Calgary or Vancouver, would we have been ready? I know, I know. Toronto, Montreal and Calgary are sufficiently inland that any hurricane would have a difficult time causing the damage Irene did in places like New York City. I know.
