🌟 [ 27 ]   Heavy rains make mess for St. James homeowners [ @CBC Manitoba ]

For more on the story: [ 🔗 Click ‼️ ] People in Winnipeg s St. James neighborhood are exhausted and frustrated from cleaning up messes after heavy spring rain and a sewer blockage swamped homes. More than a dozen people on Truro Street had sewage and water back up into their basements last week. And as the rain continues to pour down, that flooding isn t over. Pretty frustrated, said St. James resident Ben Jones. Burning up my vacation time dealing with problems that are harder than going to work. A mix of sewage and water flooded Jones s basement about 30 centimetres high and his insurance isn t enough to cover everything that s been lost. Some of those items include personal artifacts like a box full of his children s artwork, he said. We can clean our furnace, have it serviced, we don t have to get it replaced, but between all the machines and stuff down here, we re definitely not going to get back what we lost, he said.
