If you plan to stay here for more than 5 years or longer, I would say it is better to buy a house and settle down your family here. I do not think it is a good idea to buy a house in edmonton and working in fort mcmurray for long time, both for the family and economic reasons. 8 w/ Y& q6 e5 x.

It is easy to find a job if you both want to work, and will earn much more money than anywhere else. # a3 g" C- D; x4 S! d* `0 P: v* Z0 g' J4 ^ u
