Canada has become one of the main suppliers of raw materials to the United States. Why do you think?

Canada, unlike most highly developed countries, is provided with a wide variety of natural resources. According to this indicator, it can be compared with Russia, Brazil or India. This was facilitated by the huge area of ​​the state, the diverse structure of the earth’s crust, the position in several climatic zones and natural zones, and relatively low consumption within the state. Natural resources are actively mined and exported to other countries. The geographic proximity of the United States, the great need of the US economy for natural resources, made Canada the main trading partner.
