We lost much (most?) of Slave Lake and much of Fort McMurray. If we don't do this in northern communities I wonder which is the next community that will be destroyed. If $5 billion is the cost to rebuild FM (I read it was something like $800 million for Slave Lake) I think appropriate measures are necessary or this will happen again somewhere.
