I finally landed work after looking for two months, but it's pretty insane right now. At least construction season will ease the competition somewhat.

There's no lack of employment opportunities. The problem is that none of them pay anything. That's the real problem with having such massive population growth.
I'm all for immigration but this is ridiculous. It's not their fault, mind you but their presence suppresses wages in a province that already has suppressed wages.
