    Per subject line.

    Anyone on the forum here hauling in Labrador ? Mining ? Hydro Electric ? Logging ?

    I hear CAI is moving a lot of cans and Mods from Goose Bay wharf to Muskrat Falls. That means construction must be starting this winter/spring ?

    How's the work ? How's the pay ? I hear accommodations are a real problem right now (shortage) until the site camps are set up. Is this so ?

    I'm also hearing that most of the Trans Labrador Highway is now paved ?

    Just curious about all this, is all.

    Cheers

    Labrador-Don't they refer to it as "The Land God Gave to Cain"?

    Good point!-I grew up in rural Alaska in the Territorial days and spent most of my working life in the far north. I left Alaska and moved to America about 3 years ago-miss the far north-I think I would like Labrador-probably like Alaska USED to be!

    BTW-I found a book titled "The Land God Gave To Cain" by Hammond-Innes-it's about Labrador and takes place around a construction project-reads like it was set in the 50's, so not much useful information, but a good story anyway!

    CAI asked me if I'd head up there, but they don't have enough $$$ in it to make it profitable in my view.
