BY scott Lekx

As you can see this chart shows the three major Canadian
companies are helping to grow our economy and getting us out of
the recession. Energy East, trans Canada, and the Northern
Gateway companies are creating job growth and, improving
Canadian salaries. 1)Trans Canada: the $7 billion oil pipline is the
largest in fracturing. Starting salary: $59,000/ yearly.
2) Energy east is a unique opportunity for Canada to enhance our
energy security by replacing oil imports to eastern refineries
through domestic supply, and generate billions of dollars in
salaries and tax revenues for local communities along the pipline
route. The project is expected to create 10,000 full-time jobs
during the development and construction phase, well-paying jobs
for welders and many others. Experienced pipeline welders can
earn as much as $150,000 a year accrding to industry data. 3)
The Northern Gateway Pipeline: this pipline will create over 3,000
Jobs, $50,000/yearly beginning salary.
