This and That

The end of the year always bears reflection on what we've done in the last 11 - 12 months. The goal sheets I crafted at the end of 2012 are examined and my highlighter joyfully crosses off what I can mark as done. I would say that the crossing off of goals with a highlighter is one of my favorite things.

Once the highlighting frenzy is over I start thinking about the next year. Not only my goals but how our economy locally, provincially and nationally will fare.

 Alberta's outlook for 2014 looks sunny with a chance of headwinds . REIN puts Edmonton back as the top town to invest in but Calgary looks good as well.

There is a lot of uncertainty in the US and Europe if things stay on track globally it will bode well for Canada. It's been a while since we've had B.C, Alberta and the potential of  the east coast all gearing up at the same time.

At any rate we can all do our part for the economy by something as simple as having a cold beer.
