Abstract
Canada is a extremely resourceful country and one of the largest exporters of natural resources worldwide. With the increase in technology and the increase in the depletion of natural resources and uncertain demand fluctuations in the economic world, natural resource based economies will need to find solutions to upgrading their economies with or without staple product dependency.

Reasons to why or why not Canada should rely on its natural resources will be analysed and a conclusion provided.
