I. Introduction
1. Background
Canada is in the North of America, it is the second largest country in the world, and is also a member of the G8 nations. In the past, Canada was a colony of France, after that Britain defeated France at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham in 1759, and Canada became a colony of Britain. Therefore, Canada is divided in two areas, one uses French as the main language, and the others use English. Canada is a strong resource rich country like as wood, animal, fish, oil, etc. The economic history of Canada was dominated by waterways because Canada has a lot of rivers and canals. On the other hand, the fur-trade in Canada developed strongly by significant demand on fur increase, so hunting was a popular industry in that time. At the moment, Canada is the 9th largest economy, and is one of the richest countries in the world. Canada’s industry focuses in making energy products and a huge part in services like as tourism, communication. Most of the businesses are privately owned, although the government does play a major role in the health-care system and operates many services including transportation and utility companies. The Canadian economy is diverse and highly developed. It is very similar to the American economy, even though smaller in size. Moreover, Canada has a high standard of life that is the main reason attracted a lot of people in around the world go to there in order to live, or set up their business. According to Statistics Canada, in 2006, Canada’s population is over 33 million while Canada had more than 6 million immigrants of total population and a huge numbers of them came from Asia (from Statistics Canada)1
