Hal_2005 posted:edit: Oddly enough, I agree with /pol. When a friend of mine ran a bar up there, every person on staff down to the line cooks had WHMIS and Fire training. During the summers, most would night-shift and they would work on Horizon or Aurora 2. I can't say the same for your average Laval or St. John's NFLD bedroom community of equal sq. KM. Yeah, um, most fire training comprises of: If its small enough, handle it, if its bigger, leave and let professionals handle it.

PT6A posted:I don't think safety training made or broke the evacuation effort, but my guess is that people who have jobs where they're frequently/always in some degree of danger probably reacted better than those who don't, because making good (and quick) decisions in the face of danger is not a naturally-occurring skill. Still, doubt this because really, proper emergency services made more of a difference as well as evacuation orders.

PT6A posted:Maybe we should try being friends with Russia, it's not like being dicks to them has done a single good thing for us so far. They treat their friends well, you can do war-crimes and they'll still stand by you! Unless you are their neighbors and they need a buffer zone
