Sounds like Alberta, especially Calgary or Fort McMurray. The former
is where all the oil company head offices are, the latter being the
site of the oil sands--that's one really, really big strip mine. Lots
of single men (and Newfoundlanders), some of the most expensive
housing in the country, prostitutes, drugs, big trucks and Hummers,
etc., all in the middle of absolutely nowhere.
