Duncan Wilson - Port of Vancouver says it’s all quiet on the waterfront

Ep 250

Guest: Duncan Wilson

Headline: Trouble on the Waterfront - Rebuttal

 

The Port of Vancouver says the plan to expand container traffic at Delta Port is unfolding in a manner that ensures the authority meets its mandates. The port authority is charged with the safe, environmentally and financially sound management of one of the largest ports on the West Coast of North America.

 

And that brings us to this week’s Conversation. As outlined in a previous episode, one of the Port’s terminal operators says it is being shut out of the container site expansion and believes the Port of Vancouver is in a conflict of interest.

 

We invited Duncan Wilson of the Port of Vancouver to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the arduous process that has been underway for many years to determine how to meet the demand for container services in the future.

 

I also encourage you to view the Conversation I had with Doron Grosman of Global Container Terminals on this same issue. https://vimeo.com/342314601
