It’s been a boom time for new jobs in Alberta in the past year but new predictions from TD Economics are for a slower pace in 2015. This year has seen growth of 3 per cent, the highest in Canada, but the outlook is for a dip to 1.3 per cent in 2015 and 1.2 per cent in 2016. That’s lower than the estimate from RBC who believe it will be 1.8 per cent next year and 1.4 per cent in 2016.
