I believe we might see a housing shortage but to suggest a employee shortage is ridiculous. There will be no shortage of qualified workers waiting in line to come up here to enjoy the lifestyle that will be provided. When the mine I work for post job openings in the trades we typically get hundreds of applicants for a couple of openings. It will in turn drive up other wages. More people means more business for even the fast food joints who will be able to increase wages. The naysayers will look for negatives.

From: New mines might bring new jobs: but where are the workers?
