"diversified economy".....one that relies on more than a few sectors for wealth creation.

For instance, beyond wheat, potash and carbon, Saskatchewan has few other industries.

If one or two of them go in the tank - as carbon and potash are now - then the economy  has no other options for maintaining growth or even status quo.
