So while the store shelves are empty in some places, we can go to the shore line off Vancouver Island and rummage around and find what we were looking for. neat
I can probably salvage one of those stainless steel fridges.
@Mr. Z nah I’m gonna go salvage one of those smart fridges that I can play roblox on
Christmas came early?
only for low class savages and paupers that would be on the shore trying to look for stuff to take home.
Greattttt, We’ve been waiting for our new LG Refrigerator since June, I think I know where it is now.
just go and pick it up, will save you on those pesky shipping costs
Let’s Go Brandon!
Dump lost, get over it. Lmao 🤣 🤣
Sad for the wildlife 😥
Why aren’t the containers collected before they are broken up and washed ashore? Someone is not doing their job and be proactive.
Exactly
You may not have noticed but any recovery has been delayed by a massive storm; the same one that caused the problem. And do you think that the equipment to pick up 40 foot loaded containers is just sitting around the west coast of Vancouver Island?
I’m guessing you’ve never worked on a ship.
@Rick McGill Somehow they are able to get firefighting boats there. Who is asking to pickup containers?
How about few tug boats? I am sure we have a few to spare. Is it so hard to tie them down, keep them from shore? Sure beats trying to clean up the mess afterwards. That is the problem with our government, no accountability. Heads need to roll.
Lucky locals…wish free stuff washed up in my backyard…
Unfortunately there are very few locals. This is a very isolated part of Vancouver Island.
Climate Change
Apparently that kid needs a better jacket if he has his hood up indoors, hopefully one washes up
I wished I lived near by….its my only chance to have new appliances and clothes 🙂👍
Major sales going on right now in B.C. of washed up toys, clothes, and appliances.
Right off the boat.
WOO HOO. Free stuff.
The reporter said the MV Zim Kingston is still on fire , is this true ?
Yes it’s smoldering for the next few days according new news I read. Toxic material called aluminum polyethanol xantax that is toxic is smoldering right now. They lied about 40 containers now it’s 106. How do you miscount 66 containers…beyond me..
@Andy B Thank you for the info
Blame Covid for this
Looks like ill be salvaging for presents this year! ill have to make a special trip the rain island
Supply chain problem solved.
The sea is sick of the worlds materialistic junk….What does it gain a person to have all this stuff if they lose there soul….Woe woe repent 🙏🌲⚓
well let’s stop looking and pointing fingers let’s clean it up. I volunteer
looks like im driving to bc for free stuff
