The leader of the opposition kicked off question period in the House of Assembly yesterday talking about flooding in his district. Tony Wakeham says the heavy rain on Good Friday caused severe flooding in the town of Cape St. George, destroying one home and damaging several other properties. He asked the Premier why government has not offered help. Premier Andrew Furey replied by saying they are working with those affected and could do more if the.
