Well Fort Mac is burning. It is the worst disaster in Alberta I think I have seen in my lifetime. 88,000 people forced from their homes, at minimum 1600 structures gone. It is a sad and dark day in Alberta. BUT the single fact remains Albertans are a great people. There is a huge swell of pride when I see the huge out pouring of people donating and even heading towards an inferno. To help out their fellow Albertans. And I wanna say thank you to every person across Canada and all around the world who have come to help.
I wanted to keep it positive and for a few days I did but I do have to get some shit off my chest. First to the people who actually are happy that this happening your scum. Calling it Karma for the oil industry?? Bullshit. First off if you can read this then the oil industry has helped you. And by the way the Tar Sands are barely a drop in the bucket compared to the damage being done to this world. All these peoples lives destroyed and you think it is some cosmic justice. FUCK YOU.
Next I am let down by companies that aren't helping. For the last couple decades Ft Mac has kept people working. In all honesty it has been trickle down. The entire province has benefited from it. So shame on all companies happy to sell things to Fort Mac but unwilling to help them when they need it most. I am certain people are going to rush to get back and try and make money on all the loses. So shame on people not willing to help but to make money on this tragedy!
I don't wanna get too much into politics, but again it needs to be said. The NDP failed, who cuts the firefighting budget when they predict one of the hottest and driest summers on record? After a very weak winter.... And were is that asshat Justin Trudeau?? 1.6 billion for refugees. That is great, that is Canada but if the Mac isn't pumping out money to the East he doesn't care? Not that you were ever popular out here but the West wont forget. Also the WRP and Ezra the Clown Levant need to calm down. Right now this isn't the time to play politics. Joe Albertan knows that, maybe you should take note.
This kind of puts things into perspective for people I hope. Where restaurants buy beef, doesn't seem to matter. Getting cut off in traffic is really not worth exploding about. Seeing people lose everything maybe puts in perspective that we as a whole don't need to be greedy. It is great to see how generous and kind we can all be to each other. Imagine if it didn't just happen when bad shit happens...
But back to the good. Our hearts go out to everyone hurt by this. Our thanks go to every brave man and woman up there helping. As do thanks to every person who has given anything to help these people. I feel extreme pride in my province right now! Shit burns, it can be replaced people cant. So hug your family a bit tighter tonight and be proud to be Albertan! We are with you Fort Mac!
