Also the SCC Had ruled against Saskatchewan in a similar move. Even if they do make changes it will be held up by court challenges. They can't even use the Not withstanding clause.

About time for those roads, They were in horrendous condition.

Building or renovating the Forward Operating bases may be for other equipment. However the FOB could handle F18, F15 and what ever else the Air National Guards use. The drawings I seem to recall showed a silhouette of an F15 in the hangar bays.

New hangars and ready rooms coming, Apparently the Old hangars were not adequate. There were at least 3 tower cranes up already between 2 of the old hangars. Also at least one piling rig. I didn't see work started on the ready rooms yet. They will also replace a number of operational buildings...

That could be a basses for future Base Housing. With Edmonton Garrison building for 1000 additional and Cold Lake expanding it may be the fastest way. But even the prefab construction they are using in Jasper for the affordable housing could speed things up.

Talking with some contractors on a site yesterday after Carney announced the gas tax suspension. No one expect the UCP to do it here.

Be interesting to see if rumours are correct and we see at least 2 more cross the floor. PP will stay on for at least a few more months. If anymore cross that could be the end. But if the floor crossers are PCers then the hard right side may keep him on.

Up at Cold Lake yesterday for a meeting on the base. Interesting to see 3 tower cranes up and possibly more coming. My escort said there will be a few hundred workers on site this summer as work ramps up on the base rebuild.. Looks like over 1B in work over the next few years. As for Cold Lake...

the 2 houses that look like part of the project, one is a hair salon. So having ground floor commercial makes sense in that area.

Most of it is done, they've been at it for a month or so. The 112st overpass is also well along with Rebar.

Nice to see the temp decking in already. They should be getting the deck forms in this week.

Regrettably that was a members only event. I couldn't get in. But NAIT has a lot of small projects going but will have more majors as soon as The Trades building gets going. Defense Construction is still a year or so away from a lot of work at the Base and YEG. A number of New Firehalls in...

They are motoring along now.

Yes it is

I don't fit in with that group either, I was born here and worked and traveled throughout the WHOLE province. Probably more than most of them. But I am feeling more and more like I may need to leave. And I've been here over 65 years.

I can guarantee my MP will not cross the floor. Not that he would but just if that happened , after the Liberals stopped laughing there would be an emphatic NO. I have no issues with Floor crossing, I don't like it but it happens. We never really learn the motivation. So its hard to guess the...

Happy this is going, But not happy our team lost out. At least we were shortlisted. Some pretty great teams though.

Wonder what pushed her, could also be she saw a majority coming and decided to sit on the gov side. I would not expect her to be on the inside of the leadership though. Backbench.

True but there is some damage to the oil infrastructure in the area. Plus getting ships out of there will still require a few weeks and to port. So at a minimum a month. But prices could be a lot higher now so markets are adapting right now. It all depends on what both side do tonight I guess.

With Diavik and the LNG sites winding down we have only a slight drop. but I figure there will be a increase in a year or 2 as pipeline and additional LNG get started. We may see a bump as Northern Construction starts to come on line as well.
