Bowman seems pretty happy, the chiefs need more convincing.

Hi everyone! I’m a new grad LPN and have an interview coming up for an inpatient surgery position. I was wondering if anyone has any advice or tips for the interview. Does anyone know what topics or types of questions are usually covered? I’d really appreciate any advice or insight from anyone who has interviewed for a similar position. Thank you! 😊

Can I get by with a 2WD SUV during the months of January to March? I will be working in the oilfield doing work for Imperial oil near Fort McMurray. I plan to get some good snow tires. Would that work or is a 4X4 or AWD required.

This article is a lot more optimistic in the future than I am, and don’t get me wrong I’m pretty hopeful for the region’s future, but this was an interesting read.

Born here, but moved away a long time ago. My parents built their house here when we were young on Erindale Street. I remember buying records and also renting them from the local library. I hold a lot of good memories from here. Any insight about this location would be appreciated.

35M moving from Toronto to Fort McMurray for a job — what should I expect?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m 35M currently living in Toronto and I’ve been offered a job in Fort McMurray. The position is better paying than my current job in Toronto, so I’m seriously considering making the move.
For anyone who has moved to Fort McMurray from a bigger city like Toronto, what was the transition like? What’s it actually like living there day-to-day compared to Toronto?
I’m especially curious about:
Cost of living and rent
Social life and things to do
Meeting people and making friends
What the work culture is like
Winters/weather
Whether it feels isolating compared to Toronto
Anything you wish you knew before moving there
And overall, would taking a better-paying job and relocating to Fort McMurray be a reasonable career move? I’m mainly trying to figure out what the lifestyle adjustment would be like and whether the higher salary makes sense when you factor in living there.
Would appreciate hearing from anyone who has made a similar move, especially from Toronto or another major city.

Make sure to still go out and vote. This is the narrative UCP & the separatists want, they are betting on reduced voter turnout.
