Busy Month At Port Again

Officials with the Port of Thunder Bay say they are experiencing yet another strong month for grain shipments in May.

They say more than 1.1 million metric tonnes of Canadian grain went through our harbour, feeding a strong demand for the commodity overseas.

Several factors have led to robust movement of Prairie wheat and canola through the port since the shipping season opened in March.

Many countries are stockpiling amidst the pandemic, increasing demand.

On the project cargo side of the port’s operations, they say in June they’ll receive the first of several windmill component shipments expected this season.
