It was an honour to meet with @IMOHQ Secretary General Arsenio Dominguez at this week’s #MEPC meeting in London and chat about the critical role that international ships play in transporting Canada’s world trade!
⚓ Today on #WorldMaritimeDay, we celebrate our members' strong and ongoing commitment to the safety of crews, ships, and the environment in their everyday operations.

Great to be at this year’s edition of #CCCHillDay in Ottawa. Excellent thematic meetings, as well as presentations from a series of keynote speakers, including PM @JustinTrudeau. Kudos to the @CdnChamberofCom team for organizing such a dynamic event!
We need to ensure 🇨🇦 is competitive on the global stage. That's why we need to demonstrate our ability to deliver the goods the world wants and needs.
Thank you Minister @FP_Champagne for an insightful discussion on boosting Canada's economic growth and productivity. #CCCHillDay

Today, Minister Rodriguez and his provincial and territorial counterparts are meeting to discuss building stronger supply chains and trade corridors. #CdnTransportMin
Canada has been re-elected to the @IMOHQ Council for another two-year term. We’re proud to be a strong and independent voice at this forum to advocate for solutions to issues of importance to Canadians, our seafarers, and the int'l maritime community.

We welcome the end of the week long Seaway strike & the resumption of trade through this critical maritime artery. As we work to get ships moving again, let’s not lose sight of the need to prevent future economic disruptions & to ensure the stability of our maritime supply chains
The Seaway strike needs to be resolved. There is too much at stake for the Canadian economy and Canadians overall for this work stoppage to continue beyond today.
Seaway Traffic Must Resume!
If a resolution is not achieved today through negotiation, the Government of Canada must impose an immediate solution that restores full traffic on the Seaway for the sake of Canadians, Americans, and consumers around the world.
We urge gov't to immediately intervene to prevent more disruption to 🇨🇦's supply chains and limit impact on Canadians.
The St. Lawrence Seaway employs 66K+ and yields $34M daily. Halting operations will damage our economy, escalating costs and inflation.https://t.co/5q7NQgAYUX
Ensuring container cleanliness is an important shared responsibility among multiple supply chain stakeholders. We applaud the best practices guide developed by @WSC_shipping and other industry partners. Have a read below:
WSC is working with shippers, packers & freight forwarders in establishing best practice when it comes to prevention, cleaning & treatment of containers. Keeping cargo & containers clean are a shared responsibility across the supply chain. #Safety

Canada is seeking re-election to the 2024-25 Council of the @IMOHQ. This specialized UN agency sets global standards for international shipping.
