Resources : long-term shifts in commodities.: CS11-630/2014-3E-PDF
"A long list of Canadian towns and cities owe their growth to the resources that could be mined, drilled, chopped, farmed or fished from the surrounding area. Across the nation, commodities have often been synonymous with the towns and cities built around them: coal in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia; wheat in Swift Current, Saskatchewan; nickel in Sudbury, Ontario; oil in Fort McMurray, Alberta; lobster in Shediac, New Brunswick; timber in Prince George, British Columbia; gold in Dawson City, Yukon; or, aluminum in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec"--p. 3.
