Gatineau Mayor Maxime Pedneaud-Jobin says he expects river levels in his region to peak by Monday or Tuesday. But because snow melt from the north has not yet reached the area, he warns water levels could remain at their peak for two weeks. The mayor said that, unlike in Ottawa, he has the power to invoke emergency measures on his own without declaring a state of emergency. So far he said he has ordered up to $1 million in supplies and equipment to help residents affected by the flooding.
