    So why exactly are they burning appliances? It looks to me that it just makes a mess on that beautiful landscape you have up there! I'd rather see a pile of white appliances than a burnt up metal pile that's rusty and covered in ash.

    The prairie is a tinder box waiting to explode in flames, to protect our houses and outbuildings from unexpected fies most of us will do controlled burns in the early spring while the tall grass is still reasonably wet. A few years back I seen a canola crop ready for harvest which was in a field alongside the railway go up in flames the fire was started by the train passing.

    The landfill is not close to any buildings so they let her rip, appliances and tires all get burnt. The RM landfill is managed, they sell of the metal pile twice a year, you may recall from my earlier post that this RM is run by the dumbest people on earth they will not let the Indians use our dump.
