That hole is impossible to create via a chemical blast.
The Chinese government said that the blast was equivalent ot 20 tonnes of TNT. If it was military ordnance, it would never have been stored in a civilian port with no soldiers guarding it. What more do you want, except to indulge in conspiracy theories?

Some people never knew the cold war was over.

Can you seriously compare Canadian Health and Safety standards, as well as Canadian environmental standards, to the substandard establishment of laws protecting Chinese individuals.
Fuck just look at the human rights record of China.

Surely you remember the Tiananmen Square Massacre.

What does human rights records have to do with health and safety standards? The conflation is as bad as the radical feminist/religious right alliance that gave us Bill C-36.

China has a problem with corruption, and has always had that problem going back a thousand years. City planning and zoning officials probably looked the other way and approved the building of residential appartment buildings too close to the port, and/or port officials approved a dangerous goods facility too close to residential areas. In either case, their punishment will be quick and severe, as is normally the case in this one-party state. All dangerous goods facilities are now on notice throughout China. Social media in China is running wild and the government is looking at retribution to calm public anger.

Not to those who just lost their ONE CHILD it isn't, the many circulating pictures of crying people holding up pictures of their firefighter sons in uniform are one of the most damaging things the regime had faced in YEARS. This is why the central government is looking for heads to roll, heads MUST roll.

This photo below probably resonates with anyone but it hits home particularly hard in China where families who had only one child due to policy read it as a family line ended:
