    Default Blackout in toronto, 300000 people without power, heating, etc

    Been like this since Saturday night. It's been scattered across the city come areas have power, some don't. I lost power, heating, hot water saturday night and got it back 4 am this morning. Luckily there was a pizza joint that was till open, had no power but the over was gas I guess. Streets, trees, buildings are completely covered in Ice, street lights are out, traffics lights too. 2 hospitals running on emergency generators. Looks like game of thrones out there.

    I heard about the Gov't planning some false flag stuff involving a blackout almost a week ago. So its legit, they are just flexing and showing off now. That really sucks.

    Was at my buddy's place on the Danforth and there was no power all day yesterday. We went to his condo at dinner time (around Bay and Harbour) and everything was fine. Would have left earlier, but didn't feel like dealing with the ice block that was my car (melted a bit by dinner).

    9 hours without power, hot water or heating yesterdy.

    This morning my I tried to open my car's rear door window to get the ice scrapper. It was all iced, so I put some force and the hinge bolt just snapped like a twig . I had to drive to the car dealer with open window and said goodbye to $150 .

    how are people doing north of the city. One of the truck drivers said he's close to barrie and hasn't had power since sat and doesn't expect it for a few day. Also that driving into Toronto in the morning it seemed like a lot of pockets were without power.

    Luckily for me I didn't lose power at all. Can't imagine not having any heat. Cold as sh!t here.
