We need
to be proactive instead of reactive when it comes to flooding. That from
MLA for Charlotte-The Isles, Rick Doucet who isn't happy his idea to
establish a committee on flood damage control was shot down by Premier
David Alward.
He tells Tide News the government's Regional Emergency Management Coordinators
network only deals with flooding after-the-fact. He says we have to get
into a proactive stage and get out in front of these things because
they're going to be happening more and more frequently.
Doucet says we're losing an opportunity to open up some dialogue on a topic that's impacting all New Brunswickers.
