In Saskatoon Humboldt electric has got tons of work right now, a few schools and the new credit union going in down town. Bridge city electric has got work in fort mac, but I haven't done a job with them for quite a while so I don't know whats going on in town. Alliance energy always seemed very organized and like it would be a good company to work for. Aim electric is working with us at the new theatre in the downtown. There is such a shortage of apprentices right now, whether they have the pre-employment or not. If your willing to work your pretty much guaranteed a job.

You shouldn't have trouble getting work as an electrician apprentice. There is lots of call for them because everyone that could went west. Now you have to fill the gap.
What's going on at Agrium? Expansion?

The potash mines started expanding last year I believe, is there alot more to do? Hard to imagine that much building going on.
