Alberta job market goes from recovery to growth

‘It has taken quite some time, but employment in Alberta has finally returned to its pre-recession glory’At least that's what the Edmonton Journal says, read here. It kind of makes sense with the rumors I hear, but does not, yet, translates to big projects floating in. The big engineering firms in Calgary are loading up engineers by the hundreds. Last week I talked to one; they all got a 10% pay-raise but a lot of them still do the walk-about, to the competition, for a couple of $$ more. So if they are busy; we should be getting busy also, right? We will see what happens.
Basically I am a happy camper, if I look at Europe I do not see it coming back online any time soon; as I had expected Italy is next, add Portugal and Greece to the equation and you see what I mean. So our decision to go in 2008 was and is a good one. Cheers.
