Indeed. Winnipeg's has worked quite well.
And not nearly as disastrous, but Regina experienced massive flooding in the 70s and built a system of berms along the creek that goes through the city. It's for this reason that the high water levels sometimes seen in the last 10 years haven't caused extreme problems.
