So yea, tonight, at 1h14, it's been 5 years that the tragedy of Lac-Mégantic happened
For those who never heard of it, let me explain
During the night, a train without driver derailed in the middle of the town
That train was carrying 72 tank full of oil and many of them exploded
Casualties : 52 deaths
Medias says 47 deaths, but that's because 5 of those people's remain were never found
The main theory is that the fire was so intense, it burned their whole body, even their bones
People of Lac-Megantic want another railroad going outside of the city, but provincial and federal government declined
As of right now, no one was found guilty of that tragedy
There was 3 employees who were accused, but not found guilty
And honestly, I think it's better that way
Those employees did what they were trained for
The real guilty is the CEO of MMA (MMA being the train company involved), but...
He will probably never be accused...
