Concerns were raised by residents who either sustained damage due to the erosion at Cougar Creek, lost vacation properties in the area or felt they won’t be compensated for the full cost of their luxury homes.

“The policy put in place by the government is basically BS,” said resident Benny Ryan, noting it punishes people with expensive or second homes.

Officials with the province said vacation homes won’t be compensated by the disaster recovery program, which covers only primary residences at the cost of an average home in the community.
