This presentation was prepared to advise Green Communities Canada on the applicability of green infrastructure for flood risk reduction as part of the Ontario Urban Flooding Collaborative. It includes a review of the Intact Centre on Climate Adaptation's Laurel Creek watershed assessment (a case study in their 2017 report "When the Big Storms Hit: The Role of Wetlands to Limit Urban and Rural Flood Damage". The review suggests that the ICCA case study is atypical for both urban and rural areas in Ontario, meaning that opportunities for flood storage and damage reduction are more limited than suggested.
