I hope this doesn't come across as stupid, or criticizing, because its an honest question. Where does all the money go that's being raised? Like the Red Cross...which is great and I have no doubt is a worthy cause, but what are they doing in the flood specifically? I would guess its all in High River?
Most of the other Red Cross things I can think of are things like earthquakes, hurricanes and tsunamis or other enormous calamities that seem to involve a lot more human suffering. That doesn't seem to be the case here (which isn't to suggest for a split second that people aren't going through tough times!). I guess those other events seem much more devastating than what we've seen in Calgary, if I can say that without being strung up.
