I'm sorry, these seem to be double posts...There has been a photo in the media of 200 burned. You can see the address in the photo, which I can't find at the moment. However, drone photo in the CBC article linked above would appear to be that property.
As to how many fires in Portapique - I think the "warehouse", the property at 200, the Zahl / Thomas home (formerly Forbes') at 293 Portapique Beach Road. The Blair home I am less certain of.
I believe this is 293 Portapique Beach Road as it appeared in an old real estate listing.

I agree with you about 136 Orchard Beach rd. being the shop/party room/location of fake cruiser and 200 Portapique Beach Rd. being the "home". There did appear to be a bed in the loft there from the pics. Tyler Blair said in his interview on MSM that much and that there was a path through the woods behind the workshop leading to the "home". The "home" at 200 Portapique Beach Rd. definitely was burned down. There are videos on MSM showing the debris with metal lounge chairs and rock walls in the background, with a bbq tank on its side.... for reference if you see it. At the end of the video the camera person zooms in to the civic number #200 that is in front of the debris. Sorry I don't have a link to this as it was on the news last week.I agree totally. And further, IMO if a reporter isn’t quoting a source verbatim, they summarize and sometimes are telling us what they “think” the source is saying.
Which brings me back to the official home in Portapique of gw.
Paganini posted this map from the April 28 National Post of its location:

This “home” would be 136 Orchard Beach which was reported early on as being burned along with the Blair and Zahl homes. My impression (as I think is Paganini’s) has been that 136 was his work space and IMO probably the location of the pictures of the fake cruiser and party room and that the actual home was at 200 Portapique Beach Rd. (Unless they slept in both) Did 200 burn as well? Has there ever been any report saying more than 3 major buildings burned in Portapique?
IMO the fact that the community is only open to local residents means reporters haven’t been able to confirm what they think sources have told them about locations and the residents are quite rightfully keeping quiet.
New Brunswick implemented a lockdown due to COVID-19, restricting entry to out-of-province visitors. GW would’ve surely been aware of this so maybe crossing the border would be too risky, if this rampage was premeditated.

Thank you for posting the pictures of the homes from real estate listings because I could not manage to find them on viewpoint.This is 200 not burned. Crazy the horror to be found in perfectly normal looking home.

Thanks for posting this Paganini. Combined with the National Post article which fleshesthe story out a bit more, it answers most of my questions about Portapique.
I managed to go to expired listings on Viewpoint to pull up the pictures from the expired history. Also have 135 Orchard Beach Drive, not sure who owned it but I think it was the woman who called him a psychopath, Brenda Jenkin's old house...? I think, just based on when it sold. Wasn't able to find anything on the other homes, though some were just pieces of land based on assessment.
When reading Google reviews for his denture office, his office manager/spouse/partner was named Lisa. So was he and Lisa McCully together at some point? It seemed the burning of the houses was like him saying "I can't have this, and now neither can you". What a mess he made of my province...

Nova Scotia did too, we were told to "Stay the blazes home". My husband and I went out yesterday, for the first time in 2 1/2 months, our dogs and our souls needed to get out and get some peace..
The party they had in Portapique, if the cops had been there, everyone could have received a 1000.00 fine for congregating. We were only allowed 2 people together from the time we went into lockdown (hubby and I went early, I've been following Covid, as a nurse, very seriously since early Jan. when it was solely in China.) until they raised it this past weekend to 1 family and a bubble family--close family. Neither hubby and I have any left.

In the latest MSM re unsealed documents released today there is still no mention of a big gathering:I also wondered about this gathering during this time of restrictions.
And although I’m not sure what’s been communicated in Nova Scotia, elsewhere people with secondary residences have been strongly discouraged from going there. I’m certain year-round residents support those restrictions due to the risk of the spread of COVID and the strain on small hospitals and the food supply in lesser populated areas.
So it somewhat surprises me GW and his common law partner were invited to a party, as part time residents.
I’ve lived in resort-type communities in the past and have observed how conflict and hostilities between full time and part time property owners arises over many things that ordinarily wouldn’t be a major issue in a typical residential neighbourhood. Thankfully nobody was murdered though.
Maybe there was an afternoon bbq and then participants went back to their own homes.
