lyrics

The White Scare
My grand-father lost his job in 74 when the King’s mill burned down in flames. He was lucky enough to find work hauling when high
rates of unemployment came. “Conditions had been upgraded but we saw the first mines closing”. Just when the PQ started
nationalizing. The constant fear of losing everything. The recession of the early 80’s. Closing, merging, transferring operations in other mines. A lot of frustration led to the release of informations once kept secret by the companies. On the risk of asbestos exposure. Disinformation instigated by mainstream Medias just put fuel on the already agitated fire. The reports, the newspapers, the broadcastings, the bans, the fear… the white scare. This once prosperous town is now a hazardous wasteland in the eye of everyone. A poisonous vein that goes from Broughton to Vermont. And here we are, standing in the ashes of this city that can’t be burnt.
