The potential cost of overland flood insurance is enormous but, at the same time, Feltmate said companies are aware there are repercussions for the industry\u2019s already dismal image in continuing to allow victims of devastating floods to \u201cgo apoplectic\u201d when they discover they\u2019re not covered.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, if the industry doesn\u2019t deal with the issue itself, he said the government could impose a solution that is less palatable.<\/p>\n<p>Immigration Minister Jason Kenney, the minister responsible for southern Alberta, strongly encouraged insurance companies on Monday to pay the claims of people whose homes were damaged by both backed up water and overland flooding, without being overly nit-picky about the exact cause of the damage.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Or, <a href=\"http:\/\/people.ucalgary.ca\/~hayashi\/geog515\/lectures\/515_0609.pdf\">to put it another way<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The map of flood plain for 70-yr flood is shown in next page. Much of Downtown, Sunnyside, Bowness, and other residential areas are under water. This size of flood has not occurred since 1932, but it could occur anytime.<\/p>\n<p>The City proposed management plans, but met with great disfavor by community group, who were worried that property values would decline if hazard zones were officially declared.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I grumbled about the closing quote on GWO.PR.I yesterday &#8230;. it turns out that most of the problem was the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.prefblog.com\/?p=13796\">ridiculous TMX Close != Last issue<\/a>. Some very expensive data purchased from the TMX has revealed that the <u>closing<\/u> quote was 21.75-21, 5&#215;5 &#8230; a pretty wide spread, but not as nonsencical as the 21.01-22.21 <u>last<\/u> quote which, in their infinite wisdom, the TMX has decided to sell exclusively and is usually reported as the &#8220;closing&#8221; quote.<\/p>\n<p>The imminent end of the world forecast by the Canadian preferred share market was postponed today, with PerpetualPremiums up 50bp, FixedResets gaining 34bp and DeemedRetractibles winning 101bp. These rather attractive index numbers masked a fair bit of chopping and changing, with there being a fair number of losers on the Performance Highlights list.<\/p>\n<table border='1'>\n<tr>\n<td
