Abstract:
This database contains summary information on 168 Canadian flood disasters that
occurred between 1900 and June 1997. The database is not, by any means, a
complete list of flood events in Canada since the vast majority of the floods
did not cause disasters. All mentions of damage costs have not been corrected
for inflation. The database also is biased towards the more densely populated
areas of
... Canada where floods are more likely to impact humans.The database
provides an indication of the significance, impact, and location of damaging
floods in Canada.
