Thanks for the correction. <br /> <br />The problem for Halifax and Prince George is that they are kinda out of the way, they will never be the prefered first, second, or third ports of call for their respective coasts and geographic service regions. If I remember correctly, Halifax has had a hard time retaining any importance as a major container port due to an on going spat with CN. And the story on the new Prince George container port is that they are soley being seen as an overflow port for Vancouver. Are any container lines even willing to make more than a token port of call once in a while at Prince George?
