Further to that--maybe each of you could comment on this--one of the things that I've seen from companies in the industry is a real effort to accommodate the fact that many Canadians across the country don't necessarily want to move all the way to Alberta. I don't know why they wouldn't want to move to Alberta, but some people like to stay where they're from.
There has been an effort to accommodate that in terms of a supplier standpoint--for example, having inputs manufactured in Ontario and then shipped to Alberta for use, as opposed to manufacturing them in Alberta, where labour has been a little bit tighter.
I've also heard stories that some companies actually will charter flights to fly workers from one place in the country to another. They'll pick them up, bring them in for a couple of weeks at a time, and then fly them back. The workers actually still live in the place where they grew up. They're able to come out and work, but then they're able to go back and invest their income into their own communities, which I think is important.
I've heard that when things were at their height in terms of the industry, there was a real impact in places like Cape Breton and parts of Newfoundland. Folks were building new houses. There was a construction boom, almost, that was fuelled, in a sense, by the income that people were bringing back from their jobs in the oil sands.
Could you speak to that and give some examples, if you have any?
