I think most of the people who don't have sympathy feel that way because they've had to listen to Albertans thinking their king shit for the past 20 years.

Not saying I'm one of them, but I know people who don't like Albertans for this reason. They didn't sympathise when Alberta was hit by falling oil prices and they probably don't sympathise now, either.

I realized something /pol/

Everyones saying that evacuating a city of 90k w/ 0 casualties is a miracle. That they got lucky. I realized that no, they didn't get lucky. I mean this as a complement but you couldnt pick a better city in the whole country - probably the whole planet - to set fire to. I bet all the tea in China that more than half of that city has first aid training. Or WHIMIS training. TDG. H2S. The list goes on and on - the point is, it's an entire city where the majority of the residents are trained in ensuring their own safety first. An entire city of cool heads. Thats why there are no casualties. That's why it's so weird. You can't flood, snow-in, burn, blow down, or shit on an average western city without a dozen morons driving into lakes and drowning. Your average left-wing liberal service-industry-dominated shithole is literally incapable of taking care of itself in an emergency. And people die. Fort Mac is perhaps one of the few good examples of a city where the majority of the populace is skilled and competent in basic fucking survival. This is a city /pol/ has always dreamed of. Where stupidity isn't tolerated - not because it's unfair - but because it's unsafe. Where the right-leaning ideals of personal freedom and personal responsibility intersect with a sense of community. A city that is literally burning to the ground that can rally together and help out their fellow citizens. People woke up their neighbours, gave strangers rides, rescued other people's pets, and helped ensure the entire town left safely and not in some chaos-fueled self-centered panic. Not because they're obligated to, but because it was the RIGHT thing to do. The honorable and upstanding thing to do.

I get it /pol/.
This is my redpill.
This is why we need more blue-collar right-wing personally responsible citizens.
Because when push comes to shove the leftists will eat each other alive just to get out of harms way.

And that's not a society. That's what animals do.

They're in Fort Fucking Mac. You ever try to drive a Prius, or *any* fucking car even an all wheel drive through 2 feet of fucking snow? You need a 4 wheel drive with some ground clearance to make it through. That's just in the the city. They also have to drive on 100 kilometer dirt roads(b/c greenies don't want them paving) to work in the camps and sites. Roads which can turn to rivers swamps and become riddled with potholes during the slow season.

T. I've lived and worked around there on and off since 98.

Conventional oil production is 50% of total production. Unconventional production like the oil sands also includes offshore production in the Atlantic.

That whole Bakken oil formation in North Dakota spreads right into Canada.

This certainly has the ability to affect Canadian production, but the Oil Sands isn't the entirety of the industry.

There are forest management theories that say you should let the wildfires burn to prevent overgrowth of underbrush which may contribute to more serious fires in the future.

In Alaska we let most of the fires burn. In the anchorage area, they put all the fires out so there is too many old black spruce trees. They will actually explode when they light on fire, so the anchorage area is at risk of a mega fire. The interior fires are usually left alone though. That's why you will very often smell smoke if you ever visit Fairbanks in the summer.

Natural wildfires are good for the environment. They are part of the natural lifecycle for various plants and animals, they fertilize the ground, they burn off parasites and harmful molds, and they help prevent fires from getting too big when the inevitably happen anyway.

Not enough water.

Also, capert bombing with explosives would be better than water dropped from a plane.

You are gonna want a lot of dirt and shockwaves to put out fires.

In fact, I think scientists are testing out shockwaves to control large fires.

But a Nuke would turn all that Sand into Glass.

Just like how lightning strikes in the desert have been known to turn parts of the sand they encounter into glass.

The extreme heat from a nuke would burn up that oil and turn the sand around it into glass.

That's the funny part, all the Newfies and other easterners here are great guys, lots of my friends even. The thing is all the bullshit liberal attitudes come from the huge amount of people living in Ontario especially but all of the east coast.

I'd recommend coming here next year, work will be going full tilt again. I hate the weather here but I'll never move, it's just too easy to live comfortably.

Also protip: it's not just oil and gas. I made a fortune from a fertilizer plant and a nickel and cobalt refinery (Agrium and Sheritt) lots of opportunities bro

Honestly say what you want about us Albertans being hicks, we have teams of wizard engineers running the oil sands and they know their shit.

I own a Prius. It has an 8 gallon tank. While it does get a bit more ranger per fill than a normal 12-14 gallon car that gets 25-30mpg, it is not exactly a huge difference. Prii would have run out of gas as well. They cannot sit parked in traffic and just not burn any fuel. The air conditioner alone consumes 5 amps, which will drain the battery from full to empty in about 15 minutes, requiring an engine start. And this is if you are parked. If you are moving in stop and go, the battery will empty in a matter of minutes or less, requiring the engine to run to move the car. Having a Prius doesn't mean you can drive around in a crisis on empty and make it 200km.
