The author of this article should review the migration patterns for Calgary and Edmonton for the last two and a half years.  He might then realize that these two cities are not drawing Canadians as he implies, but rather may be losing people as is the case with Fort McMurray.  Considering the high unemployment rate in Alberta at this time, and the fact that low oil prices and the concomitant recession are forecast to persist indefinitely , this article as presented may have no relevancy at this time.
