The first thing that struck my mind. Maybe they’re all about finding the victims, but while they’re there, maybe they will also remove some chemical buildup or sanitize the area. I mean they will have to anyway, at some point, but this way they don’t have to take political responsibility for it, because it’s all a goodwill joint operation between states in order to find those poor missing people that they were responsible for killing in the first place, not the ecological disaster they created there in the first place just to cash the money that would otherwise have gotten spent on disposing properly of chemical waste or whatever.
This is just my bleak cynical look at it, I have no evidence or proof that this is taking place, only life long experience of how it always plays out. I am not from Canada and have not read much about this particular case- just once again I smell that same distinct odor of more shit being hid beneath the surface.
E1: $90M??!?! Holy shit are they building a mine or something?
E2: “We understand the desire to leave no stone unturned,” said a statement attributed to Manitoba Premier Heather Stefanson and Indigenous Reconciliation and Northern Relations Minister Eileen Clarke.
“However, the search process described in the report is complex, and comes with long-term human health and safety concerns that simply cannot be ignored.”
I wonder what those health risks are. I wonder what they really buried down there together with those victims that will take $90M to clean up sift through for evidence. Something is so very fucking sus here.
Sounds like they are cleaning up the landfill and can excuse the expenditure by citing concerns over missing women, to me. But I have grown very cynical over the decades, owing to seeing that shit all the time. This time it’s probably different though, who knows, sometimes experience gets it wrong. Like, there is always a slight rounding error representing acts that could hypothetically be ascribed to goodwill and responsibility.
I would like to see exactly how they are allocating these funds, which contractors they are going to employ, and what the search will entail visavis manpower, equipment, logistics. $40M goes fast. Surely they will have to move a lot of garbage around, and they will have to move it into something and do something with it. So it’s gonna be a landfill cleanup on the taxpayer’s buck, instead of the corps’ who are involved running them.
Edit: >privately owned Prairie Green landfill
Yeah gee I would probably start asking questions at this point, but who wants to be a conspiratorial nutcase, right.
During all that time all I could think of was the shareholders.
A penguin too far… :(
