Montreal Port Authority

The St. Lawrence at the heart of new, resilient and sustainable supply chains conducive to economic security

Pandemic times and conflicts have severely disrupted global supply chains and the energy world alike. Europe will be doubly impacted in the months to come. The fact that these crises have had less impact in Quebec is due, in part, to our infrastructure. Yet from businesses to consumers, from importers to exporters, everyone must now deal with shortages or delays that can have severe consequences. While the logistics community is working to rectify the situation, climate change poses additional risks to freight movement. We will have to build back better: more sustainably, more efficiently, more resiliently. The challenge is total, from technology to diplomacy. It is a matter of economic and environmental security to deploy the necessary infrastructure in these changing contexts.  And part of the answer lies with us at the Port of Montreal, in the Contrecoeur Terminal project, in this idea of an alliance on the St. Lawrence.
