A temporary housing camp in Calgary for flood victims is set to close by the end of the month.
Twenty-eight households will have to be out of the Great Plains Neighbourhood in just three weeks.
Government officials say they are doing their best to re-locate everyone into affordable housing with an option to move them to the Saddlebrook camp, north of High River.
Great Plains was originally intended to house up to 700 people, but only ever took in 70 at the most.
