In January 2016, the president and chief executive officer of Canaan Group in Richmond, British Columbia, was evaluating plans for a proposed trans-loading facility, which would be located inland from Port Metro Vancouver. The trans-loading facility had the potential to simultaneously offer a lower-cost transportation alternative for exporters and significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the Lower Mainland. Despite the potential opportunities, three important hurdles needed to be overcome before successfully launching the new operation. First, co-operation was needed from exporters and their shipping companies to provide sufficient throughput of containers. Second, an agreement from Canadian Pacific Rail to provide service at a competitive rate was essential. Third, successful negotiations were required for a long-term lease for the proposed site to justify the necessary investment. The Canaan Group president reviewed the data from a completed pilot study and wondered what his next step should be. <\/p>\n
