More populous than Regina, Saskatoon is not only home to agricultural-based industries but also the world's largest potash producer, PotashCorp, and uranium company, Cameco. The city is enjoying the proceeds of the current natural resources boom which is boosting incomes and creating employment. Unfortunately, the city also struggles with a high crime rate.
