Reminder that forest fires shouldn't be called barbaric
>>73134233
So what is the Canadian military doing.
In my opinion, they should bomb the shit out of the fire.
All that dirt and shockwaves from explosions would help put out the fire.
It seems some people are calling their internet provider and asking if their modem is still online to check if the house has burned down
>>73134422
If you stop the fire, they win.
>>73134438
Do you realize how big this fire is? It's not an oil well that needs to be blown out, it's a fucking massive wildfire spanning kilometers.

I had to leave my truck at camp. I hope i'm covered for forest fires.
>>73134617
He did issue a statement, as well as the queen. The thing is you can't really do fuck all about a wild fire, you give aid to the now homeless people and fight the blaze best you can.
People are acting like the fucking Queen should send the British guard over to help fight the fire, it's a fucking wild fire in Canada.
Not the apocalypse.

Experts are saying only heavy rain can extinguish the flames, since the fire is making it's own energy, now. Quebec sending 4 Canadair water bombers to Alberta, 10 more to follow.

All because it would cost the company too much... even though thats their job, and we legally are required to have insurance for some things
This is fucking hilarious. Canada is so fucked.
You guys don't even realize how bad it is. If it was just a forest fire, sure, it'd suck but you can clean up, move on and repair the damage.
This is an oil sand fire. Which means that under every square meter of burning land, there is a thousand square meters of tarry oil smouldering and burning. The ground itself is on fire and it will be for decades.
The last time anything like this happened was Centralia in the US. The entire city had to be abandoned and the fire is still burning to this day. Every acre of Canadian land that starts burning now will be uninhabitable and unusable for a decade or more.
Guess what's in McMurray,too. Our good old gigantic Sulfur Pyramid. It better not catch fire.

Sadly what a lot of Albertans are about to wake up to is the wrath of the Insurance-Jew. A girl I dated worked for an insurance company during the flooding of Calgary and High River. The acts of desperation that people were committing were terrible. People were defecating in their basements to make it look like their sewage lines backed up because insurance adjusters would say it was an act of god. By the end of this disaster, you'll get to see how fucked these companies really are.

>>73136206
>Why the fuck do they have pyramids of sulfur?
The process to separate oil from oily sand produces a shit ton of sulfur.
>>73136016
Doesn't it create sulphuric gas, which is a gas warefare agent?
>>73136209
ah, did people just not voting play a part in it as well?
>>73135372

>>73136346
help out the displaced
>>73136206
they mine oil. Basically they have asphalt and sand mixed together, and they dig it up and process it.
This oil has tons of sulfur, and thus it is removed to upgrade the oil before sale. Thing is there is more sulfur produced then used in the world, so it stockpiled. Even with production slowed down and stopped, they have years worth of sulfur stockpiled.
I fight wildfires in the north west of the United States. I'm hoping they call us up to help out.

ahh sorry for the insult, just whenever i go there for work, seems like everyone there is a newfie.
>>73136206
Sour oil has Sulfur in it. When they refine it, they take the sulfur out.
Problem is we need oil a lot more than Sulfur. So all of this byproduct Sulfur just goes into huge piles. We send some to Asia out of Vancouver.

Threadly Reminder that the NDP and Liberals will let Alberta burn.
>Pic related was an NDP candidate from Lethbridge's tweet yesterday calling the fire karma for climate change.
He has since taken it down, but what great insight to what they really think about Albertans behind closed doors. An entire city of people from across the entire country, 80 000 people, are evacuated. Many are leaving everything behind knowing they will never see it again. Photos, possessions, personal items that can never be replaced will never be found. During this time Tom Moffatt posts this.
>>73136235
Leaf us alone, bully.
>>73136472
>The process to separate oil from oily sand produces a shit ton of sulfur.
No.
Oil and natural gas is generally contaminated with sulfur. It is removed because when it burns releases the sulfur that combines with water to make acid. Then you have acid rain.
Sulfur can be found in any oil or gas formation. That the oil comes from oil sands doesn't make the problem any worse. It's just that they are processing so much oil in such a small area that they have huge amounts of sulfur to deal with.

They'll call in the smoke-jumpers before they call in the grunts. As of right now most of the fire-caches in Oregon are geared up for sending the plane jumpers to California to fight wildfires so their the only ones ready to make it there in time to actually do any good.
Not enough fire shelters and Mk.5 pumps to go around these days thanks to Oregon's shitty understanding of budget priorities.

Honestly I wasn't a fan of harper but I felt he would have been a better choice than a dude who only got elected for being young and claiming to legalize weed.

Yeah we should just get conventional oil from fucking Saudi Arabia instead, or maybe we can sustain ourselves using only North American conventional supplies and pay $4000 a litre while ramping up subsidising for money losing green technologies, or better yet, we can stop using all machinery, plastics and modern transportion and just revert to horses and buggies and never use any oil ever again!

I'm at Vancouver Wharves right now, actually. The sulfur system is down for a refit, but Port Moody ships it and they haven't been receiving anything for the last little while.
>>73139095
It doesn't burn very well. When the sulfur trains come into the ports in the Vancouver area they are sometimes on fire. Every now and then the piles of sulfur catch on fire and burn. But because it doesn't have a good way to mix the sulfur with air it mostly smothers out and stops burning.

I'm fine, I bought the company that owns 50% of the hotels in Fort Mc.
>>73140548
Are you scared? Don't be. Embrace it.

>I hope you don't rely on faith for a meal. You'll starve.
WTF does that have to do with anything?
Current design has safety issues that require lots of engineering controls to ensure the safest operation of any power source.
Suggest better designs that are more intrinsically safe due to a different superior design.
Get told not to have faith for food?
I'm lost man.

I'd say most of us are Easterners and Westerners, if somebody says they're from Central Canada they're either talking Toronto or Ottawa and maybe Montreal.
>>73141153
>Only if I can make you watch and clean up the mess I leave behind...
Sure that sounds perfect actually. When and where?
>>73141222
... Don't tell me you started the fire
>>73139924
Shit son, was what I said THAT deep?
>>73140834
>>73140963
Ok, he salutes you from paradise
>>73141275
Theres a lot of people from ft mcmurray though on here. whats the status of the fire tonight? i haven't been on here since this morning. any new news? is it still moving south towards Anzac?
>>73140672
It's pretty shit for the guys without seniority. I have been keeping up to date on how many shifts per week the lowest guys were getting.
It went from "Just four days :(" to "I work once or twice per month."
That's recession for you. I got my start in 2006 and know what it's like to be completely destitute with no hope in sight.
Are you getting enough to live on, bro?
>>73141378
Somebody found a roach in the forest, we're assuming it was Weedman taking care of a few problems.
>>73141378
Of course not...
>>73141479
Not really, no. Winds have died down a bit, but the fire is just too big to control unless they get some rain.
We'll have to wait until tomorrow morning until we can see how it has evolved.

Demand for iron/steel is non existent. Look at the price of scrap, you don't see crack heads collecting junk atm. When scrap is down, iron ore for new production slow/shipping dies. A lot of iron would come through the Great Lakes from Superior/Duluth or from Sept isle/Port Cartier Quebec and head overseas. There's not much moving now. Also with the easy winter there's still large stockpiles of road salt in major cities.

In the maritime industries, we muscle through the slow periods.
>>73141439
>I think only in slogans
Use you're brain you fucking idiot.
Where are you going to get the petroleum to produce your precious wind turbines and the lubrication to run them without oil?
Literally all plastic and machinery requires oil and petroleum products.
>>73141378
How do they even determine who started a fire
Wouldn't the evidence be burnt? Even if they can zero in on a limited search area (when someone noticed and reported) based on age, origin, spread or whatever
>>73141706
They still steal plenty of copper and fiber optic lines though. We can't really compete with china when it comes to steelworks.
>>73141494
Haven't worked since December. I have an Engineers ticket... Wtf. Had some savings and living the pogey life atm. Studying for my 2nd class.
>>73140672
Cape Breton b'y from the last thread?
>>73140676
>>73141246
>Embrace an increasingly forced juvenile meme
It's getting played out and coming off as cringe worthy when everbody furiously jumps on the bandwagon in every thread.
>>73136206
Some dipshit thought they could sell the sulphur, so they started saving it
The result is that giant mound of yellow shit.
>>73141852
with a fire this size it would be hard to determine, but smaller fires i think
iS THE FIRe still moving?
>>73142008
Nah ain't me bud, wish I was a sailor though. That'd be rad.
>>73141882
China buys all our steel though. Weather in scarp or Virgin ore form. They're not buying any atm so it's not moving. Grain is moving but a lot of iron ships are idle this year.
>>73140333
Over 10 years ago, yes, but like with any technology, the process gets refined as manufacturing progresses and companies that deal with green energy out sell competitors that have more damaging foot prints. Basically, they have to pick up their pant legs and show lower numbers and they have been since initial 2004 reports.
>>73142008
I'm on PEI bud.
>>73141479
Anzac has been evacuated. Long Lake project is shutting down and preparing to evac.
The fire just keeps growing and growing but the good news is that it's mostly burning forest now. The bad news is it might get to Anzac (small hamlet) before the winds change direction.
>>73142198
NB or NS? Newfie?
>>73142218
They buy our raw steel, sure, but they manufacture it over there and sell it back to us.
Don't ever go into the steel industry, Hamilton, specifically is really suffering right now.
>>73142352
New Scotland.
Overjoyed at Fort macmurray burning to the ground and Alberta taking another giant economic hit. Fuck that province
>>73142003
Bruh.
Are you mostly doing coastal stuff? I have run into a few guys from Vancouver on Evergreen ships over the years.
Seaspan has ships, too. I don't know how your industry works, so forgive my ignorance, senpai.
>>73140838
Too often. Do you even pay attention to current events?
>>73142468
Why would you be overjoyed at the hardest working Canadians getting shafted?
>>73142468
t. worthless sack of shit
>>73141638
We(edman) didn't start the fire
>>73142260
You fucking retard, I am not talking about ten years ago I am talking about now. Look into the process, and look into the purity of the silica used in the wafers in solar panels. In order to get that you need to SMELT the silica. Look into smelting of any kind! You are a fucking moron.
I hope you guys don't get fucked by the national government when it comes time for aid/relief, everything I hear about how the rest of the country treats you guys makes me think they're just gonna tell you to fuck off and in the same breath mention helping "refugees" from the middle east.
