Overview
The economy of Canada is quite advanced and most of the people enjoy high standard of living. In fact, Canada has an abundance of natural resources, such as forests, minerals, fish, and hydroelectric power, all of which has helped Canada focus their economic development on the export of raw materials and around 33.6 percent of its GDP is dedicated to exports. This has in turn led to the conservation of the resources, which is a top priority of the nation.

History
Since the recession of the early 1990s, The Canadian economy has grown more rapidly than the other developed countries. The success can be attributed to several factors, including low inflation, low interest rates, and a low Canadian dollar (with respect to other major currencies), all of which helped exports to grow.
Market-oriented economic system pattern
As an affluent high-tech industrial society, Canada today closely resembles the US in its market-oriented economic system pattern of production and high living standards. Canada started the 1990s in recession but with the help of the oil and gas boom in Alberta, Canada has become a desired place to make big money fast. With its great natural resources, skilled labor force and good governing, Canada is one of only a few countries to be able to withstand the 2009 recession. Since this is much due to the western provinces the eastern provinces still find themselves lagging behind in economic developpement.This may change as oil has recently been found off the east coast.
