Prince Rupert Port Authority Annual Public Meeting this evening, to follow lead of Annual Report with focus on Partnerships



The annual overview of past performance and future ambitions for the Prince Rupert Port Authority comes this evening at 5PM at the Crest Hotel with the Port hosting their 2023 Annual Public Meeting an event that comes with a companion piece for those at home with a copy of the short form 2022 Annual Report.

The document which is landing in many mailboxes  across the region today, perhaps telegraphs a bit of what we may hear from Port President and CEO Shaun Stevenson and Board Chair Frans Tjallingii when they open the proceedings at the Crest. 

With the companion print project noting of the Supply Chain challenges that brought reduced cargo volumes to the Port in 2022.

The main theme one of continuing on with and increasing on the diversification of the Port complex, that to create a sustainable and resilient gateway for trade.

  1. The “Port of Partnerships” line rings hollow given the impending longshore strike + their refusal to pay a fair amount of PILT + being found 1 of the 10 least efficient ports in the world

    1. Longshoremen settled state side, settlement is inevitable north of the border.
      It’s up to the city to dispute PILT, just like homeowners disputing assessments.
      That report is smoke and doesn’t factor in trans pacific congestion
      Keep trolling bub
