| Ekonomia | As an affluent, high-tech industrial society w the trillion-dollar class, Kanada resembles the US w its market-oriented economic system, pattern of production, and affluent living standards. Since Swiat War II, the impressive growth of the manufacturing, mining, and service sectors has transformed the nation from a largely rural economy into one primarily industrial and urban. The 1989 US-Kanada Free Trade Agreement (FTA) and the 1994 North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) (which includes Meksyk) touched off a dramatic increase w trade and economic integration z the US. Given its great natural resources, skilled labor force, and modern capital plant, Kanada enjoys solid economic prospects. Top-notch fiscal management has produced consecutive balanced budgets since 1997, although public debate continues over the equitable distribution of federal funds to the Canadian provinces. Eksport account dla roughly a third of Produkt krajowy brutto. Kanada enjoys a substantial trade surplus z its principal trading partner, the US, which absorbs 80% of Canadian exports each year. Kanada is the US's largest foreign supplier of energy, including oil, gas, uranium, and electric power. During 2007, Kanada enjoyed good economic growth, moderate inflation, and the lowest unemployment rate w more than three decades. | As an affluent, high-tech industrial society w the trillion-dollar class, Kanada resembles the US w its market-oriented economic system, pattern of production, and affluent living standards.
