How the Alberta government handles the inflation that comes with an over heated economy will be the thing to watch. The rising cost of fuel has a huge impact on the economy. Think of the transportation costs of getting the goods to the marketplace. It's always passed on to the consumer in the form of higher prices. Then there the lack of workers that forces enployers to raise wages. Again that cost is passed on to consumers.
With the supply of oil getting scarcer and harder to get out of the ground, the price is not going to drop anytime soon. Oil prices we saw during the last bust isn't going to happen again.
