Looking UpToday’s weak economy should not distract us from the fact that Calgary will face a significant labour shortage in the coming years.

Unfortunately, due to a number of obstacles, many are un- or under-employed. Learn more about CRIEC and what we’re doing to address these issues in Calgary.
