I suspect that ALL resources couldn't fit on one map ;) At any rate, potash should probably be considered. I didn't know that about gold. It should comfort people to know where Canada stands on oil, and to realize that, in actuality, Canada is the #1 provider of oil for the U.S. You make a good point.

For example, I know Canada is the largest potash producer in the world, and most of the export goes to China's growing agricultural base. I'm sure there could be other resources not represented on here, as well. And the fact that Canada isn't on the gold list doesn't sound right - Barrick is the second or third top producer in the world, behind Australia. So it would be interesting to know what data sets they are using. I like your point about knowledge resources, too, and intellectual labor. Very important!
