Top Industries in Canada

The Canadian market isn’t as large or diverse as some of the other markets in the world, but the country has proven to be on the top of the industries they manage. The following is a list of the top five industries prospering in Canada.

Agriculture

Canada practices fair-trading by ensuring whatever it puts on the market agriculturally doesn’t influence the price of crops in other countries. Canada’s agricultural sector is steadily growing every year and accounts for 8% of the country’s Gross Domestic Product.


Energy
