Prime Minister Carney's visit to the Port of Vancouver

"A few weeks ago, Prime Minister Carney's visit to the Port of Vancouver highlighted the critical role that our ports play in facilitating international trade. As a nation, Canada is uniquely positioned to capitalize on its strategic location, connecting Canadian businesses to trading partners across the globe. From the bustling docks of Vancouver to the St. Lawrence Seaway, our ports serve as gateways to the world, enabling the flow of goods and services that drive economic growth.

As a nation rich in natural resources, Canada has the capacity to meet the world's growing demand for high-quality products. Whether it's agricultural commodities, energy, or manufactured goods, Canada's producers are renowned for their excellence. Moreover, our highly skilled workforce, combined with our country's reputation for innovation and ingenuity, ensures that Canadian products are sought after by consumers worldwide.

In today's interconnected economy, Canada's ports are the linchpin of our trade relationships. By investing in our port infrastructure and supporting our export-oriented industries, we can unlock new opportunities for Canadian businesses to reach new markets and customers. As Prime Minister Carney emphasized, 'Canada has what the world needs — and with Canadian workers, Canadian materials, and Canadian ingenuity, we will meet that demand.' As we look to the future, it is clear that our ports will continue to play a vital role in driving Canada's economic growth and prosperity."
