My home is back up north in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. And a couple days ago there we declared a state of emergency due to excessive water and flooding. I am in disbelief at what has come to my city and to my fellow Calgarians. However, it is the support that those in need are receiving from all across our province and our country that makes me proud to be Canadian. I do not even really know what to say, but I thought I would share some photos about the devastation that has occurred. All images have been found online, and some may include other areas that have been hit, as a majority of Southern Alberta was also in a state of emergency.
The Stampede Grounds
An aerial view
And this wasn't even the worst
The entire town of High River was evacuated
And Calgarys' very own: Mayor Naheed Nenshi:
Stay safe everyone!
