Looks like quite the facility. And with castrol raceways track we should have a few decent options.

Badlands Motorsport Park is further along and has more elevation change in their design, I support both tracks however.

I am a big supporter of both. I have a Rockyview Motorsports Calendar too. Looks like both are planning construction in 2015. Badlands will be a much bigger deal and seems to be further along.

I am currently serving aboard the HMCS Halifax, Unfortunately other than managment style positions the only trade I have is my tech license, which is not red seal and expired last summer in june.

I am out of the navy at the end of April. Putting some serious consideration into Heavy diesel mechanics.

I have a friend who does HD work up in Fort Mac and makes ridiculous money. I guess it depends what you want/expect to make.

Truth.

The oil sands still look like the place to be these days. Assuming you have a trade.

Why do you think there are so many Maritimers here, I made the move from Dartmouth 4 years ago. Its been awesome. There are a ton (like more than any where else in Canada) of good jobs. The weather though... it seems like winter lasts for 9 months.

Thats the only thing i fear, is getting a decent paying job to start.

from around here, its driven into you that there is no work anywhere! dont quit your job, or you'll be on the street.

Im looking forward to this move.
