Prince Rupert

 
Northern Communities in Transition:
Prince Rupert 


Prince Rupert is a northern community in transition.
 
The city is increasingly at the centre of a global trade corridor connecting Asia and North America.  An increase in the movement of goods and resources between the continents has allowed the Port of Prince Rupert to attract a multi-million dollar container port facility.
 
Prince Rupert didn't even crack the top-20 of a recent survey of Canada's busiest ports.  
That's about to change.

Is Prince Rupert ready?
