Another Church in Canada has been completely destroyed by a raging fire. Footage shows the Church steeple completely collapse.

The historic Church was located in Saint Simon New Brunswick.

Chief Luc Dugas of the Caraquet Fire Department said firefighters responded to a fire call at the church in the community of Saint-Simon at 3:30 a.m. Monday.

Dugus said the fire started at the back of the church and was under control for about an hour until it spread.

“There’s no brick here. Nothing at all. It’s all made of wood, and it was big,” said Dugus.

The fire was put out around 8:30 a.m. and afterwards the fire marshal and the RCMP, including a dog team, began investigating.

They were all still on scene at 2 p.m. according to Dugus.

Dugus believes the cause of the fire is suspicious.

Four other buildings were also damaged, including a community hall and a cottage.

“Once it started in the roof of the church itself, I said to the other men, ‘You know, when this wall is gone inside and it goes into the varnish, the seats and everything is all made of wood with the varnish, it’s done,’ and that’s what happened,” he said. “We knew we were not going to save the place. No matter the amount of water you put, because we have the ladder (truck), we’re well equipped in Caraquet, but still. Fighting against something like that is almost impossible.”

Located in the Acadian Peninsula, Dugus believes the church was over 100 years old.

“It’s memories. People say, we got married here. Somebody died, we went to the basement, we had lunch there. That’s where the gathering was done. That’s just memories now,” said Dugus.

Around 40 firefighters from Caraquet, Shippagan and Bertrand responded.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket passes over lower Manhattan and One World Trade Center in New York City about 15 minutes after launch from Cape Canaveral in Florida on Tuesday morning.

Outer Biosciences came out of stealth last week. Lady Gaga is on the board — she built it with her fiancé Michael Polansky.

What they do: keep donated human skin alive outside the body for over thirty days. An AI model picks which compounds to test, the tissue gives the answer, and the answer trains the model. Before AI it took 18 months to find a couple of leads. Now it’s one every six weeks.

They license ingredients to the beauty conglomerates. Which is exactly why her board seat makes sense:

→ She’s run a cosmetics company
→ She knows what those buyers actually need
→ She can get a meeting with any of them

And here’s where I think celebrity business building is headed. Phase one was renting the face. Phase two was building the company yourself. Phase three is owning the research layer the whole industry has to buy from.

TIBET FLOOD: Nothing can prepare you for this. It came out of nowhere! https://t.co/IwFTWNCAOb

🚨🇳🇵🇨🇳 More footage of that apocalyptic mudslide that hit the Nepal-Tibet border earlier today...

The Bhote Koshi River surged without warning, sweeping away roads, bridges, and everything and everyone in its path.

Hundreds are missing, and based on what we're seeing, it's highly likely many, if not most, are dead.

F***ing terrifying... 💔
