Long time lurker, etc ...

Hi all, I am a reporter working on a story about long-term unemployment in Alberta. Long term unemployment, (ie: those out of work for 6 months plus) accounts for 1 in 3 of those unemployed in Alberta -- much higher than other provinces at 33%.

I'm wondering if anyone here falls in that category who might chat with me for a story -- about the roadblocks you've run into, and what challenges are out there for finding work?

Feel free to comment or send me a private message, or email me: joel.dryden@cbc.ca

Thanks!
Joel
