They could not contact the owner so they decided to just leave it in the middle of a field?!?!? Wow that’s excellent customer service!!!!

Better than taking it back to Winnipeg an charging her double transportation fee, seems to have been the most practical thing to do.
The owner of that land is very accommodating and understanding. A good person!
Patrick Maze was my high school social studies teacher in Regina. I'm happy that he's giving Saskatchewanians a good image nationally :D
It could have been a lot worse: One time a tornado in Kansas lifted and carried a house to a mystical, faraway land where it fell on a wicked woman and caused a lot of trouble . . . . . At least nobody got hurt this time.

Hillary was 5’11” until her her feet curled up to the size she is now.😄
The company obviously planned on charging her for delivery of the house back to Winnipeg and decided to save money by leaving it there and lying to the homeowner.

You haven't a clue what the company was up to, they did her a service by leaving it the field, had you listened to the story, the company was told by Sask Power to leave it there.
I would of been more worried someone was trying to build on my land. This guy you can tell is a good pillar in his community.
So nice of him NOT to make a big deal about it. Good job land owner!

Why couldn't the movers leave a note with a valid name and phone number? I suppose that would have been too much like doing something right!

I'd feel infringed upon for not, at least, asking for permission to park it there... The company just wanted to save money... It woulda cost them BIG TIME for not asking.
Loved hearing the word house said as many times as it was. Good stuff!
Nice to see that guy was cool about that lady's house being there. Permits can be a real pain. Hope it all worked out.
We need to find out the name of the company who transported that house - so we can NOT use them because totally irresponsible for not telling the house owner about the situation. Kudos to this kind land owner for staying chill about this situation.
The man that owns that property is a complete angel!

What a surprise both of them got! At least Patrick was gracious enough to let the house stay on his property temporarily, and hopefully they became friends after the house was moved.
When I worked for the health department we had a contractor bring a house in like that and install a septic system on the wrong property. Our inspector, not me, didn't check the site plan and approved it! It had to be moved of course and the contractor lost big money.

Jaw Tooth+the contractor should have sued your dept.
If they had dropped it on my farm I would've notified the sheriff. Possibly demanded rent from the shipper. A friend found a ford truck stuck in his cornfield. Tore up a few acres. He broke both windows, ran a chain around the cab and dragged it to the road sideways with his tractor. The dad of the kid called the cops for the destruction of the truck. Dad got a ticket and a bill for removal. Now the kids stay off his fields. Four wheeling in a farm field is a problem, it has to be worked to smooth out the ruts.
I hope he will be the guest of honor at the housewarming.
Awesome laid back land owner. Cool he didn't make it into a big deal. Good man. Lol😊😊😁😁
I wish I could live in a place where this is news
I just adore Patrick, what a great guy not only did he say take your time but he will watch it for you!
Good people act this way. You folks who would use an opportunity such as this to get your nighty in a knot over trespassing or whatever...Take a lesson from this guy.
I love how he was surprised to see a house on his land but was like...meh...😂

So...the movers just decided to leave the house randomly on someone's property instead of making a few phone calls until they got a decent answer as to where to put it?
It is very interesting. Land's owner is very kind person
How nice people? Are all Canadians like this?! Love from India.
Was this house/lodge going to Port Asbestos?
I found a car crashed into a big steel pole on my land. It was there several weeks. The sheriff's Dept said there was nothing they could do since it was on my land, not county property. They didn't even want the license plate number, or description. It was finally gone one day.
Congrats on his new house.
So she just happened to misplace her house? Hate when that happens.
If that was here in the states, an angry man would have destroyed it.

you used to be able to order houses from Sears Roebuck and company, and from Montgomery Ward. i know of two of these houses in Palmer, Alaska.
Wonderful. I think it's great the way they handled it. The Canadians are a very civil down to earth people. Here in 'Murica" it would have become a loud sloppy absurd mess and poorly handled. Well that's our problem. Respect to Canada.

How does a power company dictate private property (house) movement?
@bikecoboss
6 жыл бұрын
Often the power lines have to be lifted along the route the house is taking - sounds like the moving company didn't get the permissions they needed.
So the landowner has no say....not good not good....who owns your land? Wow.
Last year a MB company was moving a house on the #2 hwy and actually lost the load on the hwy and it was shattered. RCMP were there getting traffic around safely. hope they bought the insurance.
Brenda is lucky that Patrick has ethics because as most of us know, many people would have claimed it as their own immediately.
You should do a update vlog and see if it really got "home"
I love Canadians.
Nice!
That's a pretty nice looking house.

So who is the low life unprofessional company that she bought the house from? We need to be warned about this company - very underhanded of them to just park a house on someone's land and not take steps to inform the owner.....

Brenda, Patrick has been a real nice accommodating guy. Maybe a cake or cookies baked from your new oven would be a nice gift of gratitude!🍩🍪🥧🎂
Legally it's a free house. He could have had it placed somewhere else on his property. Instant in-law house, or home for farm workers. Lucky no teenagers turned it into a giant bon fire.
Is Canada even real?! When looking for a moose you stumble upon a house. 😂
That must be the most extreme case of littering I've ever seen. ;-)
Nice guy. I probably wouldve let it sit there to but really hope noone would claim it.
They can pick it up as long as the ground remains frozen, how much CND $$4 are they paying the property owner for temporary use of the property for "storage of the house"???
Plot twist- now both of them Got Married! And live happily ever in that house
That's a good fella
If I recall it was built by star owned by qualico...remember seeing it built on lag. Just before the north perimeter in wpg. Technically im not sure what road construction in manitoba that would have caused the delay from sept 😂😂 as there was no major road construction west of the city.
