A massive six-alarm fire has enveloped Toronto’s northwest after multiple explosions were reported this morning.
Several explosions rocked a propane depot in the Wilson Ave. and Keele St. area, shortly before 4 a.m. Toronto Fire Capt. Adrian Ratushniak could not confirm reports that a propane yard was on fire. He did say there was a “substantial call” in the area, and there have been reports of injuries.
“We are…continuing with a large-scale evacuation of the area,” said Ratushniak, including nearby Murray Rd. Staff Sgt. Gerry Cashman of 31 Division said that police, fire, and EMS units are on the scene.
The TTC has provided buses to the area to take residents to the Yorkdale shopping centre. It is unclear how many people have been removed from their homes, some of which were reported to be severely damaged.
Although he could not confirm what was on fire, Ratushniak said the explosions were indicative of a propane fire.
“If it was multiple explosions, I think maybe it’s like a gas station or propane cylinders.”
Eugene Koutcher, who lives about a kilometre south of the area, said the explosions woke him up to “a huge orange fire” early today.
“I was just asleep and it was a huge explosion and I thought it was thunderstorm,” he said. “It was absolutely a huge explosion, actually a number of explosions.”
The matter continues to be investigated. There are several road closures in the surrounding area.

Where is the rest of the news on these multiple explosions?

Well folks...is it spreading? Is this disease containable or will it spread and kill more world-wide until a good majority is killed off? WAR...ANGER...MURDER...(FILL IN HERE) seems to be growing.
No, none of this ever went away, but now at a fast rate it is growing as people fight the changes. There will be some that will have to answer a call soon...you will have to make a decision to fight to keep all that is good.
Ok, I think I just did a rant, lol..but seriously...where will it end? Time to reflect back, and think to the future and decide what you are willing to do..to prepare and take on to help not just yourself but many others as the days pass.

Terrorism unless proven otherwise. We have had some of these in the US and there is always a lame excuse given but in my 57 year old paranoid opinion it is terrorism unless proven otherwise. The Demographics in Canada are canging and changing rapidly. Birth rate is a scery thinng especially when assocciated with religious extremism. A minority in one generation can be a majority 3 generations down the line or even two. I challenge anyone to say it isn't so. Wake up Canadian brothers and sisters before it is too late.
it doesnt feel like a terrorist attack, it's not their style - easy bloody carnage. this was huge and spectacular but so far few casualties, i dont think there have been any reports of deaths yet.
it looked frighteningly like a nuke, im sure there are some people who witnessed it that thought that. if this was just an act of god then he's trying to send a very clear message.
staged or not, this is what total war would look like.

are there any reports of what time the explosions happened? the guy in the first video says the first shockwave was at around 3:45, then the explosion in the video and another around 20 minutes later.

China, Russia and Canada saw the bulk of the Total Eclipse with the Comet only 2 degrees from the Sun. I'm telling all of you, that is a very 'dooming' sign. Many ancient cultures believe comets to be signs of assassinations, war, or massive disasters. To have a comet exposed during an Eclipse is very ominous.
To make an example, the last time there was a comet next to a Total Solar Eclipse was June 2001. Three months later was September 11th 2001. Coincidence? Yeah, but does the universe speak to us? Sure does. I can't explain why things line up like that but history shows comets bring bad news. The Solar eclipse magnified the ominous warnings of the comet since it was slightly visible during the peak of the eclipse.
Remember this; China, Russia and Northern North America (Canada) saw the most of the eclipse/comet.
(1) Look at Russia now...war.
(2) China is in a precarious position, anything could happen to the Olympics. Considering the tensions and the characteristics of the Chinese Government.
(3) Canada is going to get it too. This propane explosion may just be one of the many events coming.
RESPECT THE COMET/ECLIPSE WARNINGS IN THE SKY.
Debunkers, I may be wrong, but be nice. If you don't like what I say, don't read it. That simple. Time will tell. And when tshtf, I will point this out again.
