Resurrecting the Port of Churchill

By Carol Baldwin, Local Journalism Initiative Reporter, Wakaw Recorder A ship left the Port of Churchill this week loaded with about 30,000 tonnes of Canadian wheat, the northern Manitoba town’s first grain shipment in over half a decade. In what government officials say is a significant milestone that was years in the making, this week’s grain shipment bound for Antwerp, Belgium, is one of three leaving the port this season in partnership with Saskatchewan-based pulse producer AGT Foods.
