Peguis First Nation has filed a $1 billion claim against all levels of government for flood damages stemming from the devastating spring 2022 flood. The First Nation says approximately 500 homes were affected, and the estimated cost of repairs, replacements, or relocations exceeds $275 million. Additionally, about 549 community members remain displaced, many having resided in Winnipeg hotels since the flood. The claim alleges that land use changes in the RM of Fisher, resulting in wetland drainage, have contributed to increased flood peaks in the community.
