Why do you want to stay in Alberta?? B.C. has lots to offer also.... and great riding in the summer as well as the winter.... (just a thought)

i always thought BC was short of jobs and didn't pay mechanics like they do in Alberta. i work with 2 guys from bc and that is why they came to Alberta

Lots of work as a HD mechanic in BC, the wages aren't as high as Alberta's but the work is there. Being in your second year you're might have a tough time finding an employer willing to take you on.

Come to okotoks 20 minutes fom calgary they are doing lots of work on a new ring road round calgary called stoney tail sure you could get a job lots of machines getting used.

move to stony plain, i am looking for techs now, being a second year guy is ok, are you on road or off road? where do you want to be in a few years in your career? only issue with my place is we are a specialized suspension place so you lose out on the expierience in all fields of the trade part. but a big plus is your always working on new units. pm if interested.

mechanics are in demand everywhere right now. got 2 resumes in three weeks of looking and neither one was even a journeyman, one was a heavy equip operator, and the other a small engine mech. hired the operator guy starts next week. but really need a more exp. guy.

Well I am hoping cardiff is a good place to live. Bought a house there and everyone in Edmonton is looking for guys.

Despite the fires and floods, slave lake is in desperate need of workers of all kinds. I'm sure you could find a job pretty easy. I don't live there myself but seems like a good place to live if you are the outdoors type.

La Crete are you sure? It's nothing but a Mennonite community up there. You could have suggested Rycroft or Wanham instead
