Canada's Economy by Sector. Chart.

I thought this was interesting. I just assumed the Canadian economy relied on Oil/Gas/Mining for 50%+ contribution. Turns out it is less than 10%.

Pretty diversified looking economy.

Except if there's a prolonged downturn in oil prices, the other top-ranked industries would suffer too.  Think RE, finance, construction, oil & gas, related manufacturing.

 

I would really love to see a US chart for comparison.

I would be curious to see the stats for Alberta alone...

 

I think the diversified economy comes mainly from Ontario, Québec and BC.
