Thoughtful

Bruce has been so considerate and thoughtful that he has even built small play areas with tricycles, toys and chess sets. There’s even a nursery and a classroom because he does not want any child to not be able to continue learning. 

Selected Few

Though the entry into the Art Two would not be an easy task. Bruce says that you would have to prove yourself to be a part of his big construction. Every person entering the bunker would have to pass through the decontamination room as well so that no germs are spread inside.

Different World

Che Bodhi, an event organizer for the Ontario Prepper Survival Network (OPSN), commented on the Ark Two: “When you go inside the bunker for the first time, it is a different planet, it’s like you’re on Mars. When you hear about this concept of 42 school buses underground, to fathom it is nothing compared to going in and actually seeing it…It’s crazy in there.”

Political Problems

Since Bruce has done something out of goodwill, the political parties are after him. Each government party is against the bunker and wants to destroy it altogether. They say that the bunker has been built without proper permits, because of which Bruce has even been to the court 30 times till now. 

Sealed

The political, the bureaucratic, all have together tried to shut the Ark Two down several times. The fire department of Shelburne has sealed the Ark Two twice blaming it on the safety concerns, but Bruce wins his way out.

Personal Toll

Even though Bruce feels it is his duty to help his fellow mates during the time of a worldwide emergency, he admits that building and maintaining such a huge shelter has taken a toll on him. There’s a lot he has to deal with.
