Canada Shipping and Trade Outlook: What a Strong Start to 2024 Means for Freight Interests
Partner:
The Canadian economy is surprising economists, spurring S&P Global to upgrade its GDP outlook for this year to 1.7% on the back of stronger-than-expected exports and imports at the start of 2024. Rising Asian imports reflect a normalizing container shipping market, although port fluidity hinges on railcar supply and labor peace amid Montreal longshore contact negotiations. At the same time, legislation that would prevent railroads and ports to replace workers during a strike or lockout is gathering apace, the opposite of what the industry is seeking after a two-week-long strike closed British Columbia ports last year. This webcast will offer a broad Canadian economic outlook and implications for trade, followed by the highlighting of major freight developments and supply chain challenges ahead.
