Tuesday, August 20th, 2013 — Alberta Premier Alison Redford says provincial estimates show “well over” $5-billion will be needed to rebuild infrastructure after severe flooding in June. Talking on Calgary radio station CHQR, Redford said she has spoken with the prime minister about rebuilding costs. Ms. Redford said Stephen Harper understands that the federal government will be responsible for covering part of the bill. She and Mr. Harper sat together last week at a flood-aid concert in Calgary. “Our estimates right now is that we are looking at well over $5-billion in terms of infrastructure rebuild,” she told CHQR on Monday. “Part of that is going to be financed through the federal government and the prime minister has made a commitment to that, which we are grateful for, and part of it will come from provincial revenue.”
