Northern trade corridor top of mind as Manitoba premier plans meeting with PM
Kinew says interim studies are promising, and private-sector companies may invest if governments move ahead with the corridor plan.
- Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew plans to meet Prime Minister Mark Carney in Ottawa next week to discuss the northern trade corridor through the Port of Churchill on Hudson Bay.
- The meeting is part of a plan for Kinew and Carney to meet approximately every three months to focus mainly on the northern trade corridor project.
- The federal government recognizes the northern trade corridor project as a "transformative" initiative and it is under study for private-sector interest and icebreaker use.
- Promising studies show interest from companies in energy and critical minerals, which could grow if governments proceed with supporting icebreakers to extend Hudson Bay's shipping season.
