    OMG! That is horrible! Do they know how the fire started? I hope noone got hurt but with an explosion like that I wouldn't be surprised if there were casualties.
    Is there a link for the story?

    Last I heard there were 2 fatalities, one worker at the propane plant and one emergency response worker. I believe there were about 1/2 dozen houses destroyed as well as damage to others.

    If you look at the cbc website or the globe and mail, there are multiple stories, but most are now about lawsuits and zoning rather than details of the actual event.

    how horrific the images are that I've watched. The shock wave was unbelievable though, with all the horror along with it.
