Thats only about 2 weeks of work in those areas.
 
yes... the govt came the little oil companies a incentative to drill. ($100/M i believe)

a rig just fired up north of town today! probably Husky since there was 5 of their rigs down the same road b4 xmas
 
as of tuesday there were only 65rigs workin in western canada. im sure the numbers have gone up some since its after the long weekend.

come back in 2yrs and you will get a job
 
It's just off and on. Buddy of mine, was dead last year, and very busy this winter. His rig is actually starting up right away here. It's slow but every summer is, just like it use to be 5+ years ago. Can't compare this year to the previous two that were insane!

This year is nice for me, guys actually show up and work hard, and don't expect huge money to stick around.
