Actually, Canada is the third largest producer of diamonds in the world. The diamonds are mainly found in the northern part of the Canada (northern Quebec, Northwest Territories, and what not). It is expected that Canada will take over the number one spot in the next few years or so.

Diamond deposits were discovered in Canada about 15 years ago and since then Canada has become one of the leading countries for mining them.

A significant diamond deposit was found in the Northwest Territory, Canada in 1991. The mine is operational and quickly became a top economic resource in the area.

Yeah, definately. I like them too because they're really good quality and it's an escape from getting blood diamonds.
Oh, and a funny little fact: There's been new findings of platinum in Ontario, so hopefully that'll help with the jewelery business.
