What kind of mining jobs are experiencing labour shortages?
“It is pretty widespread actually. There are shortages in accounting, finance, mine operation and construction. Right now, we have the 2010 Winter Olympics that will be held in Vancouver and of course there is so much going on with constructions of roads and different facilities, so we are competing with those shortages. And then of course the province next door, Alberta, we have the oil sands up there and they have been facing these shortages for years and now it has sort of come our way. So we do have to be very proactive with finding people. We do have a great construction team in place with people on our team from around the world who have lots of experience in building mines, but I think for us one of our big focuses is that we are going to start targeting universities a lot more than we have been and training local people as well.
