Most of Fort McMurray saved says Premier after tour

Premier Notley tried to be positive today as she toured the badly damaged City of Fort McMurray. She said a total of 2,400 structures have burned — just more than 10 per cent of the city — but major infrastructure like the hospital, municipal buildings and all the schools have been saved. Of the 88,000 people evacuated, more than 40,000 are in Edmonton, 5,000 in Calgary and another 2,000 in Lac La Biche with 25,000 who have registered but haven’t said where they are staying.
