Plans for future of Port of Churchill starting to take shape

By Danton Unger – CTV News

The Arctic Gateway Group—which owns the port—has signed a memorandum of understanding with Inuit-owned Nunavut Sealink and Supply Inc. (NSSI), a northern cargo shipping company.

This MOU aims to restore the deep-water connection that previously allowed essential supplies to be shipped between Churchill and Nunavut.

“The Port of Churchill is ready to supply businesses, industry, and families in Nunavut with the goods they need, reliably and with improved service,” Chris Avery, president and CEO of the Arctic Gateway Group, said in a news release.
