[Vision2020] June snow?

[Bev Bafus]

considering that my 25 year old nephew is working at a job in the Alberta
Oil Sands, making $100,000 a year, and my other 37 year old nephew is
working in construction making over $250,000, and my brother in law makes
even more working for the Canadian government, I think they are doing much
better than we are...

Hey, Bev -

Taking into consideration our current government administration, and just
in case John McBush should be elected, I have a question for your Canadian
sister-in-law:

What is the job market like, how does Alberta's cost of living compare to
Moscow, and what is the availability of aprtments, ay?
