Calgary Clean-Up

Calgary Clean-Up

Today I watched a Calgary Clean-up video and the Mayor of Calgary is devastated. He said that it could take over ten years to clean up all of Calgary. Most people are focused on the Stampede Stadium because in 11 days the rodeo starts. The rodeo brings jobs and money to the city. Two people came to one guys house and said can we help you clean up? And they helped him remove about seven feet of water from the basement by bucket.

Our family in Calgary is safe and their evacuation has been lifted. There was a little water in the furnace room but other than that the house was perfectly okay. When the power went out the sump pump stopped working. Another way the flood effected them was that all their food went bad because the power went out and the flood forced the government to shut off power. If water and electricity mix they can kill you.
