THUNDER BAY -- The Port of Thunder Bay saw its largest monthly shipment of potash since April 2007 during the month of May.
The Port Authority is seeing some of the highest export totals in decades as 134,000 metric tonnes of potash were shipped in May to international ports in Brazil and Europe.
Grain shipments also spiked last month. The 920,000 metric tonnes that left the port is 100,000 more than the monthly average and is mainly driven by record levels of canola.
The Port Authority also noted increases in dry bulk shipments and in the number of vessels docking.
