If you live in Tornado Alley, blame yourself. Ron Paul says no emergency financial aid to those

109. Thank you.

It is a myth that tornadoes won't hit in hilly areas. One of Canada's 'high activity' areas is in the middle of BC - an area that has mountains everywhere. And it's a myth that strong tornadoes don't hit outside of tornado alley. I live near a major city that is the northern most major city in Canada. No one figured we'd get a tornado, but in 1987 an F4 killed 27 people here and caused millions and millions in damage. Turns out in our province we get an average of 10-12 per year, with an F3 or higher every decade or so. I suppose all of the people that lost their homes then should have known it was coming?

BTW, aforementioned city doesn't get anything else - major floods, earthquakes, volcanoes, hurricanes or tsunamis. And it wasn't supposed to get tornadoes either.
