maybe its better than Winterpeg or Regina.. but fall's well short of Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, St john, Vancouver, and even Calgary IMHO

too a point... I'd rather be in Moncton or Fredricton than Edmonton.. even Whitehorse is in front

(can't comment on Yellowknife or Quebec that's why their left out)

I must have a half-dozen resumes from laid-off oil-patch workers every day these last few weeks. But what use is a 20-year floorhand/roughneck/tool-puller to me in residential maintenance?

I see lots of these guys going bust as they had spent beyond their means and not put aside for less-certain times...analagous to the UK coal miners in 1984-5.
