Interesting! But then, I don't notice car driving volumes the same way as car drivers since I don't drive.

There is some general statistics on what Albertans have spent their personal income. In the last 12 months, big ticket items have fallen whereas health and fitness items/services have increased. I think that's a good thing...look after yourself by becoming healthier in body and mind while looking for employment!
