I'm sure O&G will make up the difference...
Anecdotally:
My daughter has a contract position with an environmental firm who do work on solar and wind project. They are a large company but with a small presence in Alberta with their western Canadian office in Calgary. It is a small location (handful of employees) but they were moving ahead with an expansion of the office (and the jobs that go with it) but that has now been paused. And these are good STEM type jobs, hiring university grads which is exactly what we have been trying to attract. Now we're driving them away it appears.
