True. The only thing they need to gut are some interior, non load-bearing walls. Pretty simple stuff. The actual structure is remarkable. For the purposes we were exploring, it would have had some heavy duty requirements and this structure would have met them. rebusrankin 1

That's pretty disgraceful. This is normal across the board... I watched the CBC program and was surprised that they didn't bring up that everyone does this. It reminded me of the car graveyards where they have perfectly working vehicles just sitting and rotting away rather then selling them off at a cheaper price in fear of diminishing the brand value.

blue_gold_84 Posted October 26, 2020 Report Posted October 26, 2020 https://readpassage.com/media-attacked-the-wetsuweten-but-ignore-white-fisher-violence/ Quote Earlier this year, protests were organized across Canada in solidarity with Wet’suwet’en land defenders fighting against the construction of the Coastal GasLink Pipeline through their unceded territory. These protests were met with an onslaught of demonization from a significant chunk of corporate Canadian media commentators. I recently read through these articles published in the National Post, Globe and Mail, Toronto Sun and Toronto Star. I found that writers, and entire editorial boards, condemned the protests for a wide variety of reasons, but a few came up in almost every article on the topic: they ‘turned violent’; they were illegal; they inconvenienced people and impacted their ability to feed their families. Most writers either explicitly or implicitly made the point that their opposition wasn’t primarily because of the particular cause at hand but rather was due to a violation of “law and order.” These columnists often wrote that they’d be strongly opposed to anyone protesting this way regardless of their cause, because the law applies to all. It’s been several months since most of these articles were published, and there’s cause to question if concern for “rule of law” was really what motivated these writers. In mid-September, the Sipekne’katik First Nation set up a lobster fishery in Nova Scotia, a right upheld by the Supreme Court in 1999. They were almost immediately met with a sabotage campaign from settler fishermen, which ramped up earlier this month. However, the characteristics media commentators portrayed the Wet’suwet’en protests as being defined by (violent, illegal, detrimental to people trying to provide for their families) are genuinely applicable to the lobster mobs. And so, if commentators were being honest about what motivated their decision to write so harshly about the Wet’suwet’en protests, we’d see a similar condemnation of the white lobster fishers from these same writers, right? Well, that’s not what has happened. Interesting - and sickening - double standard. Not surprising, however, considering Postmedia owns 3/4 of those "newspapers" listed in the article. JCon 1
