Is Calgary business pretty much like any other

major cosmopolitan centre?

Yes and no…

Calgary business has the butchers, the bakers and the candlestick makers etc…….

And then of course there is a very large percentage of business related to all the energy sectors, not the least of these being the tar sands.

The vast majority of people moving in to the Calgary area (and the rest of Alberta) move here to take advantage of the enormous opportunities for employment in the energy sector.

But there is an unbelievable shortage of labor in all other sectors of industry, because of the unprecedented growth in Alberta as a whole.

The construction of the infrastructure required to support this growth is already booked 6 years ahead, and the costs are escalating up to 40% and more annually, simply because of delays due to material and labor shortages.

So this basically opens the doors for any one with any kind of skill, and even for the unskilled laborers.

The signs are out everywhere and the pay is better than anywhere else.

What an opportunity for entrepreneurs!
