The "Harper government" focused solely on the energy sector, oil and natural gas, predominantly oil, while ignoring manufacturing and other economic drivers, reduced the diversity needed to continue growth and, in bad times in the energy sector, cushion the damage.

Diversity is the key and we know full well diversity is an anathema to the "Harper government" whether it's in economic drivers or refugees who don't resemble "old stock Canadians".
