I know limited things about Russia, but the things I know are about Samovar and Pysanky eggs…
As for the Ressources, Russia has more untapped ressources than almost any countries in the world. The siberian regions is full of it, but since the soil there make transportation very difficult, Russia do have a lot of troubles to extract ressources during the whole year, and because of its harsh winters, most industries are shutdown.
Russia has very little home appliances manufactures, and are mostly good at making military equipments.
They have a lot of petrol that they sell to China and Europe.
Moscow is the city in the world with the most billionaires…
The weather is a little bit longer than in Canada, it end at the same time (april no snow most of the time) but begin earlier (sometimes as soon as september).
Russian works mostly in services industries, little manufacturing jobs are available, but ressource minings, and retail sales have increased a lot in the last few years.
Its about it…

The main idea of Russia is the Chaos.
The Chaos is the manager of Russia. People destroy all the time all rules existing. They cross the street with "red" sign, they throw the rubbish anywhere, they smoke and drink much and are proud of it. The most of people unhappy and depressed.This country is not mother for people, it only use them, but not love. But people of this country have deep feelings, kindness and capacities which couldn't realize in Russia.
About job: low payment and bad condition for work.
About buildings: very poverty and dirty in rural areas without any roads and many new high building in urban areas, but bad qualities.
I am a Russian women and live in Moscow. .
Love Canada and be happy!
