Dear Friends and Partners,

Hope you enjoyed your beautiful, sunny long weekend! We spent time walking the ravine with the newest addition to our family, Greta the rottweiler.

After fostering a few dogs over the last few months we found our new family member at WHARF. Rescues are always looking for foster homes. It's the best way to experience having a dog, all expenses paid and for a short stay only.  If you have a "foster fail" as we did, you still win by getting a new addition to your family.

Alberta's economy looking up says ATB financial
By Michael Franklin, Friday May  19, 2017

"The province's economy is expected to make some advances in 2017, ATB Financial's latest report shows.

The bank released its latest quarterly outlook on Thursday and it's forecasting the economy will grow by 2.7 percent in 2017 and 2.3 in 2018.

Increased stability in the oil patch is one of the main reasons for the growth, the report indicates.

Modest growth in retail activity, housing price and the labour market will also help." Jump HERE

Lower costs drive drilling boom in "bellweather" Montney shale formation in north western Alberta, B.C 
Robert Tuttle and Kevin Orland, May 19, 2017

"Drilling rigs and roughnecks are hot commodities once again across the Montney shale formation in northern British Columbia and Alberta, and companies like Grimes Well Servicing Ltd. are having a hard time keeping up with demand.

That's because the Montney, unlike many parts of Canada's oil and gas region, is seeing a surge of investment three years after the worst energy slump in decades. During the first four months of 2017, the number of wells drilled jumped 80 percent from a year earlier to 277, according to Calgary-based Grobes Media Inc.'s BOE Report. It's the most for the period since 2014, when oil prices were twice what they are now and natural gas was 50 percent higher. " Read More HERE
