1. New Terminal Opens at Port of Prince Rupert

Vancouver Sun reports that a new $750 million container-handling facility at the Port of Prince Rupert aimed at expanding Canada’s international trade has opened just as a trade war with the US intensifies.

Why it matters: As a trade war with the US intensifies, this $750 million container-handling facility positions Canada to diversify export routes and reduce reliance on US ports.

Key detail: The Canxport Terminal at Prince Rupert adds significant capacity for Asian trade, offering a faster route to the US Midwest and relieving congestion at Vancouver.
