House moving in Cassiar, BC 1993 after the town auction
Here we are moving out some of the purchased houses from abandoned mining town of Cassiar, BC 1993, after the NDP government did what it does best, and that is killing resource jobs.
To those who could remember what happened, the Cassiar Asbestos Corporation owned the entire town, and when the world prices slumped on asbestos after 30 years, they talked to the NDP for a bailout. No dice. The company folded the entire town, Maynard's auctioneers came and everything went up for bid and was sold. The townsite was bulldozed under by a bunch of D8 and D9 dozers, and their job was to destroy everything left behind. They ripped up all the water and sewer services under the streets with the cat rippers, and pushed it all under. What you see here, the roads trees, the quaint houses, etc are all long destroyed and the town is a flat barren area now.
It was a very nice town, but a very strange experience to be in a abandodned town with no law, utilities, and regard for outside world time.
This is French Building Moving from Alberta working. They teamed up with Strome Building Moving from Alberta and they moved the entire town to Watson Lake, Yukon and Dease Lake, BC. As they had the monopoly on the moves they sharked a lot of people, and ran a very shoddy and crooked moving operation. It was a cut-and-run deal, so much good stuff was just destoroyed. In one instance they were moving a house and they needed to get into the backyard, so they drove a 980 loader through the garage next door and pushed it into a pile, just so they could get next door. Some guy paid good money at the auction for that garage, now it was destroyed. "OH WELL" was their attitude.
Anyway this is them at work. Nope no hydraulic jacking system here. Just old school railroad jacks. A beefed-up version of a Jackall.
I was so lucky to see the destruction of a town when I was young, and what a pen-stroke of some NDP bureaucrat in Victoria can do to an entire town hundreds of kilometres up north.
