The Strait of Canso Has the Potential to Become a Major Industrial Hub

We were asked to be the keynote speakers at last week's State of the Strait in Port Hawkesbury sponsored by the Strait Area Chamber of Commerce. During our two day visit to the Strait we were able to tour both the Everwind Fuels Marine Terminal, which can store 7.5 million litres of fuel in transit to other destinations, and the Port Hawkesbury Paper Mill, one of only three super calendar paper mills in North America. Everwind is the company pursuing the development of hydrogen gas using onshore wind as a green energy source. The area is already an important industrial hub in Nova Scotia but could become an even more important hub with an industrial strategy to leverage its year round deep, ice free harbour.
