Born, raised, and started a family in Grand Bank. I've been in Alberta for the last 15 years. The only salty air I get to smell around here is around my fish tank. Ha ha!

I'm thinking Saskatchewan might be my next move. Once Ed Stelmach succeeds in driving the oil patch out of Alberta, that's where the next boom will be.

For sure. Looked like it was gonna kick before I left the sands last year. We were looking at a lot of contracts/projects over the border before the downturn. Only a matter of time (doubt if it's too far away either).
