Namaygoosisagagun First Nation is GONE. the fires came i’m so fast people only had minutes to pack and evacuate by boat WITHOUT EMERGENCY SERVICES BECAUSE THEY COULDNT REACH THEM IN TIME. but yeah sure worry about your ruined beach day
This footage is insane, but what might be even more insane: the guys inside this train survived. The community outside didn't.
This is northwestern Ontario, where 128 wildfires are burning tonight and 53 are out of control. Down the same rail line, a First Nation of about 40 people burned Monday night. Residents fled by boat. The local MPP says the entire community has been erased.
The fire that did it has been burning since May 31. Six weeks. Then 40 C heat and high winds turned it into a 14,000-hectare monster in a matter of days.
The detail that should worry you more than the video: three trains loaded with combustible and flammable materials are stopped and staged on this same line because the fire cut them off. Parked fuel cargo, inside an active fire zone.
The crew in this footage had detached their locomotive to rescue a track foreman. That's why they were in the fire's path when it closed around them. One of them can be heard saying "this could potentially overtake us."
The only highway into the area is closed. When the road closes and the rail line burns, a boat becomes the evacuation plan.

“Every time my period comes, I wish I weren’t a girl.”
Every month, about 2 billion people around the world menstruate.
But in conflict zones, women and girls are often unable to access menstrual care products.
Stigma, lack of privacy, and limited access to products like pads and tampons can mean massive disruptions to daily life – on top of wrestling with forced displacement, starvation and more.
we can’t “not be into politics” or “not make everything political” when there are currently multiple countries founding genocides and bombing other countries. it’s not something you can just ignore or stay out of just because it’s not affecting you directly
fbc's skate didnt deserve a score as high as that. mediocrity being rewarded wouldnt hurt as much if the values that they stood for didn't represent everything that's horrible about the culture of fs lol. my thoughts are with the victim rn. i hope she's okay.
i cannot stress enough that no politician, past or present, who is complicit in genocide should ever enjoy any peace, positive publicity, or prosperity for the rest of their lives
The United Nations Commission of Inquiry found that Israel is committing a genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza. In its report it concluded:
To Michael McLeod, Cal Foote, Alex Formenton, Dillon Dube, and Carter Hart: you are small, pathetic, evil men. I hope you are miserable for the rest of your sad, pathetic lives. I hope the guilt of the horrors you subjected that woman to eats you alive, you spineless monsters.
We are seeing children slaughtered while trying to get to water.
This isn’t an isolated incident or a technical error.
This is a deliberate strategy.
Canada promised to take action if Israel continued this deliberate strategy.
We need to see that action now.
