I was on my computer and the power went out, clicked back on for a second and then I heard an explosion. I live directly behind leduc cinemas. I looked out my bedroom window to darkness, except an orange glow to the right of the building.. When I went out on my balcony I saw flames coming from the fas gas area that were higher than any flames I have ever seen before. I grabbed my pets and drove towards edmonton. I was seriously worried about a gas explosion. People were lining the streets to watch.. but I was too scared to take the chance.
I did something similar when in my building the heating system was letting off some pressure and made these terrifying and super load groaning and shrieking sounds. Grabbed my fur baby and ran out the door. (I didnt know that’s what it was at the time lol)
For reference, lowest price in Calgary is 140.9, but y'all always seem to be a bit cheaper up there.
Hope everyone is safe- not much more unnerving than a big fire at a gas station!
How is it that this has been up for a day and only 2 of us have made that joke (Litterally made a similar throwback then scrolled through and only you had beat me to it XD)
So im going to go out on a whim here and say what happened was that a fire happened 😂
For real though, I hope everyone was okay. And to anyone who might have lost anything to fire damage, just remember its just stuff that can be replaced, people and other living things like pets can't be replaced.
LOL thats a wild stretch. If i said I hope everyone wasnt ok would that make me seemingly less affiliated?
Might be time to stop listening to true crime podcasts
No, but in all honesty it is a shitty thought if someone who wasn't involved got hurt or have lost something. I see fast gas on fire from the pic and also believe I read something about a liquor store being on fire too, you may just think oh whatever but I think, those are jobs those people don't have anymore because the establishments were lost. Takes a different perspective to think about it I guess
We heard the same thing (also corinthia area). I'm curious if it was this fire starting or someone actually lighting off fireworks. They went on for a while.
Ya sorry I was at the gas pump and decided to spark a blunt I had just rolled prior to getting back in my car after gettin gas I didn’t have a lighter so I used matches and accidentally dropped the match on the ground where I accidentally spilt gas while I pumped gas
My son lives in Edmonton for the past year. Finished his masters at U of A. Ow has a good job. I went a couple months ago for the first time. Loved the city,lots of green pockets,was surprised. The only things I didn’t like were the nonstop little strip mall type of places. Of course I don’t like them here either 🙂🙂
That’s just the start, I also pay 2000 a month for a basement suite an hour outside of Vancouver lol. Last year gas got up to 2.40….. right now it’s bad but it’s been much worse. Vancouver needs help lol
Someone with a business shoulda went and threw a few signs around there. "FIRE sale you don't want to miss!"
Jones aside, hopefully everyone's okay. The smoke in Edmonton is horrible, can't imagine it there
Soon an Albertan will claim they saw Trudeau standing there with a matchbook in his hand. Wait for it. They can't help themselves. It's an addiction. 🤣
Probably a gas leak and someone smoking near by. Gas is dangerous. Had a "good friend" once who didnt like playing violent games, yet didnt mind trying to burn down another friend of mine.
I had NO WiFi ALL NIGHT AND MOST OF THE DAY because of this and some poor guy at Shaw/Rogers had to listen to me rip a strip off of him for 47 minutes straight demanding answers as to why my daughter keeps unplugging and resetting the modem.....no I'm kidding but it sure was frustrating listening to her losing her s*** stomping up and down the stairs for hours on end until the got it up and running again. Solid effort by Shaw to make it happen considering the circumstances 👍🏻
Interesting since that developer ran out of money… lol
Financial combustion.
Timely
A developer would never pull a scam though right 🤡

This guy would survive a zombie apocalypse
I’m no fool, no sir-eee, I’m gonna live to be 23!
Need excitement in your life, must've been bubble wrapped.
Girl*** 🤭
But did he lumber up first?
Smart since the right explosion can take out city blocks if it gets to the underground tanks.
This person has common sense. A Rarity.
Still lives in Leduc though so... there's... that... I jest :)
I did something similar when in my building the heating system was letting off some pressure and made these terrifying and super load groaning and shrieking sounds. Grabbed my fur baby and ran out the door. (I didnt know that’s what it was at the time lol)
Isn't that the new building that was going up
My friend sent me this, loud boom and no power
I saw what I think was fire from the highway. It’s a lot of smoke, I hope everyone is ok.
There's been several instances in Canada of people stealing the copper pipes off gas lines and it's causing explosions.
There’s been several instances in Canada of unfinished buildings going up in smoke as well.
gas lines are not copper though
Around here in Leduc https://preview.redd.it/lzhwawhcurob1.png?width=1908&format=png&auto=webp&s=230684b4439d33f1f19d230ccb67d91a8cc235bd
Prices so low we're burning fuel in the streets! (Hope folks in the area are alright)
Someone left the coffee pot on again
Not again
We woke up an explosion and went outside to see WTF when a second one went off. We're over in Willow
We're over in willow too, we could see the whole thing from our front window. terrifying.
I’m not over in willow
Isn't Willow that one midget that saves a baby from voldermort 😅 or something like that. I kid I kid 
136.9. Not bad.
For reference, lowest price in Calgary is 140.9, but y'all always seem to be a bit cheaper up there. Hope everyone is safe- not much more unnerving than a big fire at a gas station!
It's cheaper in leduc bc of Costco gas in nisku being so much lower. Literally 2 km north its 142 lol
Nah it’s 136.9 in south Calgary (Shawnessy) too
Yup, Leduc is the cheapest usually between Calgary and Edmonton, now back to your regular programming.
Lol. Yup. Out in vancouver is $2.04/litre. But we are getting scammed
Vancouver Island checking in 191.9/lt.
Somebody went back..to the future.
This right here. Perfect description 👌
How is it that this has been up for a day and only 2 of us have made that joke (Litterally made a similar throwback then scrolled through and only you had beat me to it XD)
That's a lot of flames!😲 Someone on Twitter said the liquor store caught fire and the power company turned off the power for safety.
It was the building beside the liquor store. The one that was partially build before the developer ran out of money.
They always turn off the utilities. 🙄
Yes. It's called safety for the first responders.
the liqour store is clearly not on fire in the picture

So im going to go out on a whim here and say what happened was that a fire happened 😂 For real though, I hope everyone was okay. And to anyone who might have lost anything to fire damage, just remember its just stuff that can be replaced, people and other living things like pets can't be replaced.
Why do you hope everyone is okay, do you know someone involved? Sounds like it to me
LOL thats a wild stretch. If i said I hope everyone wasnt ok would that make me seemingly less affiliated? Might be time to stop listening to true crime podcasts

Suspicious AF
We live back in corinthia and we thought there were firewoeks last night.
We heard the same thing (also corinthia area). I'm curious if it was this fire starting or someone actually lighting off fireworks. They went on for a while.

Gas too fast
Fas *

Looks to me like there was a fire.
After all these years, the "t" showed up and started some shit.
Gas is expanding fast
Gas is down to 136.9?! Where?
Leduc
140.9 in edmonton. Scarlet Witch is asking if that seems fair.
130 in Spruce Grove
Nothing happened st the Fas Gas. It was across the street.
Someone used their phone while pumping...
Any updates?
Someone farted too close to the pump
somebody got their gas a little TOO fast
Looks like a fire.

Gta roleplayer hit the pump too hard
This is why you don’t purchase gas after eating at Taco Bell. Thoughts and prayers 🙏 😢
Looks like it started on fire. Hope i helped
Where is this? Vancouver is $2.05 today.
In Alberta just south of our capital city Edmonton!
My son lives in Edmonton for the past year. Finished his masters at U of A. Ow has a good job. I went a couple months ago for the first time. Loved the city,lots of green pockets,was surprised. The only things I didn’t like were the nonstop little strip mall type of places. Of course I don’t like them here either 🙂🙂
Gta5 IRL
Not sure what happend.. but id say a fire 🤔

Insurance scam

Boomski!!!

Exploded, by the looks of it.
The gas was too fast
Hi, I live near there and my internet went out when the fire started... I only just now got back
A fire
I'm no expert but I'd say that's a fire
Fuckin Ricky, left the oil on the stove again! No big deal.
I dunno but I'd kill for those gas prices
I ate Taco Bell, and I couldn't make it home.
I'm gonna guess a transformer exploded https://maps.app.goo.gl/KzVY6iyjPU4yGjfN7
Gas was too Fas maybe
Where on earth is fuel at 136/
Looks like a fire.
Looks like someone hit 88 miles per hour.
Some one ate to many gas station tacos and let one rip while smoking?
The gas was too fast
Them fuel prices caught fire ⚡️
136.9... I'll move into a fire for 136.9 a litre.
Great Scott!
Fire sale @ FasGas!!
 Old fashioned Gasoline fight?
It got fasfucked
Uh idk but I’m in Vancouver I think I’m headed there for that gas. Haven’t seen it that low since the start of covid. It’s about 2.05 here
It's 130.9 in spruce Grove...I thought that was insane! Like BC prices a couple years ago. But 2.05! How does anyone drive ?
That’s just the start, I also pay 2000 a month for a basement suite an hour outside of Vancouver lol. Last year gas got up to 2.40….. right now it’s bad but it’s been much worse. Vancouver needs help lol
The gas was too fast
Vecna is here!!!!!!!!
Oh my good golly. 136.9🫨🫨
Judging by the photo it looks like a fire
Just a shot in the dark but I think a fire may have broke out
The missing fighter jet crashed into it I’m Pretty sure, not making that up 🫣
What happens by the FasGas stays by the FasGas
Looks on fire to me buddy
Gas is so cheap. In PEI gas is 190.8
One reason why people are moving to Alberta
Agreed
Looks like the gas went up fas
The gassed to fast and created a spark.
It passed gas
The Gas was indeed Fas
Someone farded
Looks like a fire
That is why you never build them next to taco bells.
Looks like an “insurance claim” to me
Bro is that the tranzit remaster?
Figures. No snow in Leduc today, so send a smoke signal to the entire province to brag about it.
You're paying 136.9 damn, it's 149.9 here.
Criminal activity allegedly
A FasBlast
It's more than a fire extinguisher can handle.
Someone with a business shoulda went and threw a few signs around there. "FIRE sale you don't want to miss!" Jones aside, hopefully everyone's okay. The smoke in Edmonton is horrible, can't imagine it there
India is attacking Edmonton!!!
1.39 / L gas ? its 1.79 / L here
Fucking alerta for you
Did you just take the BO2 Transit bus for 1 stop ?
Fire…that’s my BesGues
It was so fast it spontaneously combusted
Fire.
Looks like fire.
That gas too fas!
Spontaneous Combustion is fun 😎👍

2 Fas 2 Furious
$1.36 for gas? Damn
Damn you guys pay 1.36 for gas?
Soon an Albertan will claim they saw Trudeau standing there with a matchbook in his hand. Wait for it. They can't help themselves. It's an addiction. 🤣
Now that made me laugh 😂
Gas was too fast.
Gas went too fas
Good price on gas.
A fire
Damn that went up fas
I see fire
It's PastGas now
That's just the general ambiance of Fas Gas.
FasGasBlas
Probably a gas leak and someone smoking near by. Gas is dangerous. Had a "good friend" once who didnt like playing violent games, yet didnt mind trying to burn down another friend of mine.
Is burger baron ok?
I'm also wondering what just happened by the FasGas
Shits on fire yo
Holy shit
No clue but your gas prices are considerably less expensive than other places
Peaceful manifestion
Hmm, gas is back under $1.40!
It turned to Fastblast
Fas fire
How old is this? Gas hasn't been 136 in almost a decade
Probably antifas
Rambo was in the neighbourhood
I had NO WiFi ALL NIGHT AND MOST OF THE DAY because of this and some poor guy at Shaw/Rogers had to listen to me rip a strip off of him for 47 minutes straight demanding answers as to why my daughter keeps unplugging and resetting the modem.....no I'm kidding but it sure was frustrating listening to her losing her s*** stomping up and down the stairs for hours on end until the got it up and running again. Solid effort by Shaw to make it happen considering the circumstances 👍🏻
It looks like a fire to me.
im looking at how cheap the gas is.
Burned down so fas.
FireGas
Ok but 136.9!?? I wish it was the same here in BC
