$1000000000.00, where i'm at now is the town of seumas on the west side of the border in the state of washington. this is in the northwest part of the united states. this is a small town of about $1600.00 residents only. and they are very much at the epicenter of this storm pass through here a couple days ago as well. and they're now very much in a clean up stage as the cold wet rain continues to fall here. let me step out of frame so you can get a sense of what this cleanup looks like here there. or as i mentioned, $1600.00 residents of this town, and it's estimated that about 80 percent of the homes had some sort of water damage or were totally destroyed. most of the residents have bleed, but the few that have stayed have ever, are bringing all of their data now destroyed, possessions that are inside their home and bringing them here to be taken away to be taken away to the dump. and i and i just got in the mayor a few months. how are you doing? good, good. it's can be expected with everything going on. caught kyle christiansen. right, thanks for joining us. i know you just showed up. it's evo

this is now the city of su, mass, washington state in the united states. this is a town of only about 1600 people. this is the main street through town. again, it would normally be very busy around this time. but as you can see, it's pretty much deserted. and that's because 80 percent of all of the homes and buildings in the entire town had been damaged by flood waters from this incredibly powerful storm, including the railroad tracks that are just over my left shoulder over there. you might be able to see him if i walk a little bit to my left. that is a major rail line where freight trains go between canada and the united dates that is completely shut down as well. because about half a kilometer down as we were showing yesterday, here now does your, the train has just completely derailed because the flood waters were so strong, it just pushed, it trains right off the tracks. so this is causing all sorts of supply chain issues and transportation issues of goods and products and services between canada and united states. so this storm is clearly having very

this is a freight train that runs between washington state here. and canada takes farm produce and other goods back and forth. and the storm and the power of the water just completely flipped that train. the water came through so strong. here people are telling me that it was surprising. it took them off guard, they're used to storms here, but nothing like this. the water level is receding. now as you can see, but just 48 hours ago. busy this was a giant raging river and that river rushed right through here into the railroad tracks and flipped the train as used thou see behind me and you get a real sense of how strong the force of the water is. that it actually also twisted the railroad tracks the steel railroad tracks. they're just twisted them like they're pretzels, almost you really get a sense of how strong this storm was here in this town. about 80 percent of all of the buildings and homes were damaged. most residents have fled and not come back yet. we've just seen only a couple residents clearing out the remains of what's left or their homes

a lot of people are telling us here in the northwest, washington state we're storm, they've seen in a decade or more than a decade. some people in a lifetime. you agree? i would agree. there were some aspects of the flood. there was worse than what we saw in 990, which was the last really big flood that we saw. so yeah, this is definitely worse than we've seen. you're in an area that used to severe whether you've seen floods in the past. as you said, this is one of the worst. what do you attribute to this is a climate change? is it something else what? i think it comes down to manage waterways. we've really seen over the last few years. that water is doesn't have anywhere to go. so i think by managing waterways effectively will help us and there are things we can do some more permanent solutions we'll be looking at and looking for partners with the tribes with the federal government and state government as well. we just gotta start managing our waterways. i don't think it's really a climate change issue because we've seen such a big change in the amount of water coming in such a short

well, gabriel is on those live for us in sou mass, washington state game. so it just took us through the extent of the damage there and how the cleanup operations progressing well, 1st started british columbia and canada, which is just about a kilometer. so behind me, in that direction, that's where the u. s. canadian border is at british columbia has been hit very hard. they are trying to clean up there. but as you mentioned, they are still also trying to reach people that are stranded or isolated. that rescue crews have not been able to extract from the areas that have been flooded. it's a city across the other side of the border over there is the city about 150000 people in canada. that's been the hardest hit area. a lot of farm land and farms have been isolated as well, but the army in canada is being used there to help in a clean up efforts here in the city of sou mass in washington state. they're starting to clean up efforts here as well. but as you can see, it's hard because the storm was so strong that it derailed an entire train. and as you can see

it's one but 23% here in washington state.ecause of what the picture of the people are running away from the vaccine and feeling that it is ineffective. i think that is a valid strateg and it is a valid point. breakthrough cases are low. however what they will never tell you is that the depth rate is actually lower than the breakthrough case rate. it's also low. they don't say that. they treated as if you don't ge the covid vaccine, you are goin to killed yourself and kill others almost automatically. about 1% depth rate is actually a 1% survival rate. and i think that is deeply dishonest and certainly disingenuous when they're doing things like that. i think we can have honest conversations about the efficac of the vaccine. i think they can stop treating people like they are and we can actually hear things that don't conflict with each other, even though you might think it would conflict with each other. let's have an open dialogue about what the data says instea of digging through dashboards online and different reports that
