I'm not seeing that in construction and I'm not talking about homes or condos. Commercial construction, non tower related is ramping up and hasn't been busier since before the Olympic boom. Labour prices, material prices and contracts all on the rise.

There is more work then we can bid and for what we do we probably have the largest estimating team in western Canada. I'm not saying this is the end all be all for judging what's happening in the Canadian economy but all I've experienced in the last year and a half is things moving forward not slowing down. Maybe they'll shift who knows but right now it's not the case.
