And nothing of value was lost (because there's bugger-all of interest except trees on the Alberta-Saskatchewan border).
>>73343069
>>73343444
NO ONE OUTSIDE OF ALBERTA CARES
Seriously. What did we lose? A bunch of houses belonging to dirty uneducated oil riggers and drug dealers?
Fort Mac is a shithole that should have been wiped out years ago. I love seeing the convoy of lifted F-250's driving back to Mom's house in Ontario. Fucking stupid people with no degrees thought oil rig jobs would last forever.
Just an hero pls and save the trouble.
So the ENTIRE city got covered? From the downtown areas to the residential areas?
Pics from burned out downtown where?
Plenty of freshly cleared land to build refugee camps on, you fucking cucks.
>>73343617
Nah, people go ballistic over something that is virtually irrelevant. It's 850 sqkm now and 99.999% is random forest that will be regrown in 3 years. It's a natural cycle of forestation and regrowth that retarded CBC news and others don't realize.
The only thing I wish was natural was wiping out the whole provide of Alfagda and replacing it with a barren landscape we can shoot guns in without the retarded "westerners" (btw - not even westerners, alberta is middle of the country losers)
>>73343617
Downtown was saved.
But the residential areas around it weren't.
Its no wonder that Canada is burning.
These firefigthers are just lazying and sleeping in grass, while theyre "protecting" houses from fire somewhere their bosses cant see.
See how lazy they are, sleeping in middle of day and dont give a fuck.
Canada deserves to burn.
>>73343605
They'll just come back here and build all the fucking houses popping up everywhere because of chinese shadow investors driving up the prices. In the meanwhile a university grad with any STEM degree would be lucky to get a job serving coffee for minimum wage.
>>73344114
>downtown core where all the money and businesses are was saved
>but the average joe prole lost everything
I'm not even fucking surprised.
>>73344491
You must be a nigger if you think they should have saved some trashy houses instead of million dollars worth of stores.
>>73344300
they are literally welfare scum
>>73344636
The people living in those houses drive the economy, not the stores.
You got the cart in front of the horse. Without those people, there's nobody to sell to, nobody to work the till.
Workers are more important than capital/assets.
>we're literally watching Canada burn
And they said I was crazy.
>>73343069
this is fucking beautiful
fuck you, faggot.
>>73344300
you know, in america, our firefighters are known for literally nonstop fighing fire until they drop from exhaustion or die. firefighters have literally fought fires for over 140 hours continually, non stop, like madmen.
maybe they had something worth fighting for, leaf.
>>73343605
Piece of repeating shit.
>>73345255
Wildland firefighter can confirm. Did 3 different sets of 140 hour weeks in the woods last year on Okanogan. Was hell but I sure do like the house I bought from that paycheck. Night shifts are no goddamn joke. After day 3 your brain plays dirty ass tricks on you and well, things get weird for everybody.
>>73344636
Most houses in the mac are less than 10 years old and go for $400-$500,000
A 4 bedroom rents for $3000 a month because the fucks who build them make $10,000 a month after OT
>>73345583
thanks for doing that.
>>73345583
Ye, thats why the firefighters are actually those, who light the fires, so they can get higher paychecks.
It is known.
>>73346889
We have it pretty good don't we? :^)
>>73343605
>Uneducated
Canadian traded are very skilled. Apparently your just jealous of their oilbucks
When did Canadians start acting like Americans?
I'd like to thank Canada again for helping exxon to hit a 52 week high stock price next week.
Couldn't have done it without you!
>>73347014
there's fucking muhammeds in ft mac? figures they're complaining about the the free shit they're getting, is it inm their fucking blood or something?
>>73347340
The only reason they came to leafland is gibmedats, they fucking despise everything white including the government and don't pay taxes.
What happened to the oil refinery south-east of Anzac?
>>73343605
t. Toronto
The rest of Ontario hates you faggot
Any livecams or feeds for this happenings?
I just want to see crying canadians.
>>73343605
Would you shut the fuck up already. You're in every Alberta fire thread cuck. We get it. An Albertan fucked your mom
>>73343069
At this point, it's not going to stop until you get rain, or it literally runs out of combustables.
Better to just get people out of the way of the burn lines (if there are any) and unless it's going to roll over something like a toxic waste dump, leave it to eventually hit a shoreline or something else that won't burn.
>>73343069
ANTHROPOGENIC CATASTROPHIC CO2 GLOBAL WARMING CLIMATE CHANGE IS HAPPENING NOW!!!!
THE UN WAS RIGHT. DENIERS NEED TO BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE NOW!!!
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE TO SAVE THE PLANET!!!
>>73345583
Fuck man after 3 days you are classified insane. I've done 100 hours no sleep and I was hallucinating like a mother fucker.
Please god if you are reading this. Please let the forest fire spread to winnipeg and kill off all the indians who are bankrupting this province. Make manitoba great again.
>>73343605
This is why the rest of Canada outside the SJW cities want Toronto to get nuked.
I hope one day something happens in Toronto that requires an evac, I want to watch you fuckers kill each other.
>>73347899
This fire starting spontaneously due to dramatic rise in global temperatures.
>>73348005
Weaponized smallpox on black friday!
>>73343069
So if all the land is dry, why not water it?
Or why not cut it down?
>>73345583
Do they supply cocaine to all firefighters?
>>73344300
They are city firefighters who came from surrounding areas, you cant just throw manpower at a fire and expect to win, fighting fires takes strategy and planning, those guys are where they are supposed to be.
>>73345583
Damn good thing you quit amphetamines this week.
500,000 acres.
That a lot of woods burning.
>>73348487
THEY NEED TO START BY UNDENYING AND CUTTING BACK ON GREEN HOUSE GASSES!!!

>>73348509
Lol it actually wasn't as bad as you would imagine, we have guy collapse while standing straight 100% asleep but we slam some redline energy drinks(they are the best) and keep going
The Southern edge of the fire is expected to make it's way to the southern portion of the Suncor site, it is not expected to be much of a threat to the site due to the lack of vegetation and the sites highly trained industrial fire fighters.
The fire that crossed the border from BC has prompted a voluntary evacuation in Clear Hills County, AB.
>>73348762
>redline energy drinks(they are the best)
You obviously know nothing about meth.
>>73343605
your a dorable
>>73348955
Though many crews do engage in the use of narcotics our crew is very reputable and we like to keep it that way

In West Virgina they now sell energy drinks with meth.
>>73349110
So you're basically an outsider and your "crew' shuns you as a pariah.
I see why you're here on 4chan now.
Redpill me on why this fire won't wipe out north America
What's stopping it?
Havent we developed ways to stop forest fires? You would think we would be smart enough to develop a system to intercept a fires path and mother the flames.
Hell yea
>>73343842
>(btw - not even westerners, alberta is middle of the country losers)
That's not geographically correct. Canada is about 5,400km across from west to east. The mid-way point is almost exactly at the Manitoba-Ontario border.
>>73348796
There's a guy predicting that the wind will shift south and east tomorrow lighting up sasquatchewan.
>>73349177
All weather events, geologic catastrophes and fires are from this day forward a result of catastrophic global apocalyptic anthropogenic CO2 man-caused disasters.
Get that through your head, you disgusting climate change denier.
>>73349293
Actually, if you get really windy days for a week, it would spread so far and wide, it would be seriously devastating to Canada.
Juust imagine all those Canadian refugees flogging to USA.
>>73348005
Golden Horseshoe raised, can confirm for truth.
Nothing is worse than Toronto arrogance. Especially when they think it's the centre of the universe, having never travelled elsewhere to see how shitty the place is.
Fuck Toronto.
>>73349677

>>73349578
Heh. Closest town to Fort McMurray on the Saskatchewan side is La Loche. It'd be real bad luck for the town to get hit by a forest fire just after what happened.
>>73349614
With their disgusting syrupy ways and their inability to pronounce certain combinations of vowels . . .
>>73343069
Please help im on fire.
>>73349614
what if it starts spreading across the border, then to Central and South America, then a big ship just leaving port catches fire and that ships eventually docks in Europe and then that catches fire too just when they are launching a space rocket, which as luck would have it, also catches fire and eventually lands and burns up the moon, which then falls down on to Israel.

If it wasn't for Alberta, you'd be in a third world shit hole.
This is punishment from God for electing a feminist as PM, and the NDP in Alberta.
>>73350823
Alright which dingus busted the grill on the truck
>>73343069
Hey just got back from Fort Mac.
Do they not do controlled burns in Canada? Cut fire trails through the forests? Artificial dams to pump water from?
Like, what the fuck are you idiots doing??
>>73347000
>Tries to make fun of someone for calling others uneducated
>Uses the wrong "your"
The only qualification you need to be a rig pig is a pulse. Fort Mac was a dump full of meth heads and other degenerate drug addicts.
>>73350823
I-is that a rainbow flag on that truck?
>>73349944
RIP Albertabros
>>73351057
Controlled burns and fire trails are a no-no in Canada.
Why can't Trudeau put the Muslims to work putting this out? I live in the States and I can barely breathe outside when it's perfect for open window temp. That and it's so godamn hazy. Smells like burnt shit too.
>>73351057
The dense woods are dried out and the wind is blowing flaming bits across firebreaks
>>73351057
Breathing in all dat weed smoke
>>73344636
you're dumb
this has nothing to do with what they could/should have saved, the houses were on the outskirts of town and they were caught off guard by immediate winds and houses were burning down WHILE people were evacuating.
the downtown core was down a hill, substantially away from the houses that were burning. as an aside, one of the first areas to get evacuated was Gregoire, a business district that contained more valuable information and fort mac infrastructure than any of the shit-ass downtown retail stores.
now people are saying "sure, the sites will be operational long before the city is" but that's just bullshit. the city provides so much important infrastructure for the sites, it's not even funny. when trucks break down, Guthrie and Mobster won't be there for fleet maintenance. when big rigs at Suncor carve out their hydraulics because of a grease leak, suddenly you don't have Fort McMurray Machining to do repairs. You don't have Culligan or WPS to deliver water. you don't have the local Acklands Grainger to provide supplies to 90% of the shit out at site. you don't have Keyano College to do most of the site safety training. how the FUCK are sites supposed to operate? nothing is working. nobody is living there. EVERYTHING is shut down.
fort mac is going to be a ghost town for a long time and I wouldn't be surprised if the $CDN reflects that.

Thing is, without the hospital and airport, it would be years before FMM or Grainger would show back up.
big question is this - how many people will stay and how many will take their insurance check and move elsewhere.
who cares , fuck alberta. the fire won't reach regina , rural saskatchewan is a shithole anyways that deserves to be born. about time those oil fucks get what they deserve , albertans are the biggest arrogant cunts out there and it's been a damn good few years of cuckberta getting BTFO in OIL and Fire . lmao eat shit cuckc
>>73343605
>Seriously. What did we lose? A bunch of houses belonging to dirty uneducated oil riggers and drug dealers?
It's our only industry besides selling small pieces of land in the GTA and Lower Mainland at exorbitant prices, which are exorbitant because ... the prices of land in the GTA and Lower Mainland are exorbitant.

then aliens come to congratulate us for killing jews and then their spaceship catches fire that is linked through other dimension to another world that then catches fire and its so uncommon there that they got no idea how to stop it that then causes factory explosion that moves the planet towards their sun for a moment and the country called israel can be found there also which again burns for being just at the right spot at the right time. then we have furious sex with the alien species that look like human in various ways just like in mass effect

>>73351656
Alberta is the reason why the Canadian dollar is worth more then something to wipe your ass with.
>>73351633
also, to be fair, the hospital was not burned by virtue partially of luck; it just never got there. there was a very important blockade by the fire station though, and the airport is out of town so it has nothing to do with the post talking about how "millions of dollars of stores" downtown were more important than houses.
i was making a point that far more important and valuable infrastructure than some shitty retail stores were destroyed in Gregoire.

Did burn houses catty-corner to the hospital.
and yes, the retail is fine, but the key stuff was
tier 1
Water plant, airport, hospital, public safety buildings, Key bridges
Tier 2
Major employeers. More on the production side then the retail side. Roads (as paved roads are insanely expensive), bridges and the like.
tier 3
retail outlets and high value (tax wise) property and housing.

Why not bomb the fire. It works with oil well fires.

why dont they just get a dozen bombers filled with water and other shit to stop the fire?
>>73343069
Burn baby burn.
On the upside, diversity is your strength. So you'll be fine. Trudeau has more Muslims on the way.
>>73354004
sure anon, im glad you brought it up! they didn't already have bombers, and didn't think of it. what would we do without you? a dozen bombers is definitely enough. the water they drop definitely puts out the fire and doesn't just slow it to let people on the ground basically clear ground and stomp it out.
what a good, educated post. continue posting anon!

I did a summer up there, it was fucking shit.
