    What you described isn’t “looks like a duck, quacks like a duck”.

    This is a fire in a government (publicly-funded) location in an industry that’s often overlooked and underfunded… in a traditionally conservative country (with a Liberal leader for the last few months) that is part of a very top-down hierarchical structure. Which would suggest that the complaints of a systems administrator are likely to be ignored. And that’s assuming that the systems administrator is competent, which isn’t a guarantee in and of itself.

    I’m seeing what looks like a duck, I’m hearing the quacks. The conspiracy theory is that it’s a squirrel in a duck costume that learned how to quack so people would toss it bread.

      Here we have a glass of water, it’s half full.

      Did someone forget to fill it up, or did someone drink it.

      Is it institutional incompetence or criminal conspiracy?

          I don’t have any argument, just my natural suspicion only.

          But you likewise are thin on facts, your natural inclination is to see this as more a system issue.

          Either we will never know , or one of us will be correct later
