From an article at nextsteps: Time strains on baby-boomers and dual-income families will spur a huge increase in personal services such as shopping, housecleaning, landscaping, pet and house sitting, and interior decorating. Boomers will put great emphasis on value for money, service and quality.
 * Roger Goodman**, who compiled the research for the Alberta Careers Beyond 2000 study, says Alberta's working population will include more people from aboriginal populations, other provinces, and other countries. A few of Goodman's projections from Alberta Careers includes:

A more health-conscious older population will seek out wellness programs, cosmetic surgery, cross-training and low-impact fitness programs as well as health foods.

The second tier of baby boomers, now in their late 30s and early 40s, will spur the renovation industry with demands for upgraded bathrooms and kitchens, home offices, sun rooms and new entertainment rooms.
