Authorities said they expected water levels to peak by Wednesday. But flooding risks remain high across Southern Quebec, particularly the corridor between the Outaouais area west of Montreal and the Beauce region south of Quebec City.Public Security Minister Geneviève Guilbault visited Sainte-Marie, Que., in the Beauce area, and met with several mayors of towns affected by the overflowing Chaudière River.
“As you can see, the downtown of Sainte-Marie was badly hit by flooding in the last few days, as well as the Beauce region in general,” Ms. Guilbault said. “It’s a very sad situation and our thoughts are with citizens who’ve been affected or will be in the coming days.”
