Ft. Mac sounds like an awful awful place for a new lawyer: no women, low pay, high cost of living, etc.... The only thing more miserable than living there would be looking around you and realizing that everyone there makes a minimum of 5 times as much as you.....and it took you 7 years of university to get there.

Ft. Mac is a great place for Engineers and labourers/techs. Otherwise it's not so great. As so keenly pointed out, you'll earn a pittence while everyone around you is raking it in with 2 week on 1 week off work rotations.
