They will need at least another 500 homes plus some multi-family condos (this is in addition to what is still required before we got the data centre). Our house will be worth a lot more in the next few years.

Re: Positive Shit

Good news for the small town of Olds, Alberta, where I live - we are getting a new $10 billion dollar Data centre here. It will end up creating 1000 new jobs. This is absolutely huge for a town of around 10,000 people.

Re: Not so deep thoughts by donlever

Huberdeau out for the year post hip surgery. Once Kadri and Coleman go they are as bad as us. Better goaltending though... Fuck me. I take my comments back about the Flames!
