Smokey in cal? I think that's where you're at.
Gonna be 3bill+ of damage.
where did you get the 3b + number from ?
news said something like 350m
they didn't have million + $$ houses all up and down the streets no ?
if it's actually 3b + worth of damage holy fucking tits.
the richest canadian has only like 3b, would be intense.
would be a rich cunts net worth of damage.

Price tag could be as high as $9B
BMO analyst Tom MacKinnon said if one assumes that if the ultimate damage can be limited to somewhere between a quarter and a half of all buildings being destroyed, the price tag to rebuild would be between $2.6 billion and $4.7 billion, based on the lessons of 2011.
"But since Fort McMurray is nearly 10 times the size of Slave Lake, a disaster of the same magnitude impacting nearly all of Fort McMurray [similar in the way that nearly all of Slave Lake was significantly impacted] could potentially lead to $9 billion in insured industry losses," he said.
That would make the disaster far and away the costliest disaster in Canadian history. Currently, the 1998 ice storms in Quebec that cost insurers almost $1.9 billion in today's dollars are the most expensive insurance event ever in Canada in inflation-adjusted terms, according to IDC's 2015 annual report.
Brutal.
news was stupid off.
this is by far the biggest disaster in canadian history.
Interesting.
