Has to be one of the worst on record but I'm not sure.
Funny personal experience from the spring following the flood in '05. I was wandering the banks of Fish Creek (a provincial park within the city) looking for debris that may have washed up from the flooding. I found a human jaw bone. The police confirmed it was human and interred it where they put unidentified human remains. It looked quite old and was likely washed up from a native burial ground within the park. A week or two later I read in the paper that a farmer west of the city found entire human skeletons washed up from the waters.
Anyways, wonder what the flood will dig up this year?
