Gap Widening

According to this news source, http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2011/11/feeding_7_billion.html, the gap between the rich and the poor are still widening despite the more developed world we live in. One of the most important staples of the world is wheat and from the pictures, it looks like Canada is one of the main producers of wheat. This could be part of the reason why Canada was able to be one of the countries who experienced reversal of fortune because it was fortunate enough to have the land that is conducive to growing wheat and therefore allowing Canada to have a continuous source of food and also allowing Canada to have control over a main food source of the world.
