With the metropolitan area’s well-developed expertise and infrastructure in logistics and freight transport, Montréal has a clear edge in positioning itself as one of the main gateways to North America. With over 135 million North American consumers within a 1,000-kilometre radius, i.e., less than a day away, Montréal and its port are a hub of intermodal transport. How can we strengthen the city’s role as a North American leader in transportation and logistics? How can we reinforce Montréal’s place in the global value chain?

With the government promoting a maritime strategy involving public and private investments of up to $7 billion, the Forum will be an opportunity to discuss the city’s dominant role in this important strategy.
