Did you know that Winnipeg has its own unit of measure for river levels? In this mini-episode, Paige and Rebecca explain how “Feet James” came to be, what the numbers mean, and how an interactive display in Winnipeg’s East Exchange puts flood levels into perspective for pedestrians and podcasters alike.
