Flooding in Grande Prairie

Alberta has long been known for its history of floods. Unlike in other parts of Alberta, Grande Prairie has never experienced massive flooding, but they have dealt with their share of wet basements as a result of ice damming.

Other communities near Grande Prairie haven’t been so lucky. In 2011, around 30 households were flooded in Sexsmith when the town received 32 millimetres of rain in just two hours. With no overland water insurance, residents, small business owners and farmers who experienced loss and uninsured damage due to flooding had to turn to the government for assistance.

The Overland Water Endorsement is now available to most homeowners in Alberta and we can all take comfort in knowing that there is financial protection available.

65% of Grande Prairie homes at risk for floods are
not covered by flood insurance.

Why should I consider purchasing fresh water flood Insurance?

Flooding is the most common type of natural disaster in Canada1 and many homeowners assume coverage for flood related losses is included in their standard home insurance policy. For the first time, you can have the peace of mind that your home and possessions are protected in the event of a flood related loss.
