一个加拿大贸易集团敦促联邦政府扩大圣劳伦斯海路和大湖区6个较小的港口的清关,以促进集装箱航运,提高供应链效率,减少对美国港口的依赖。 A Canadian trade group is urging the federal government to expand customs clearance at six smaller ports on the St. Lawrence Seaway and Great Lakes to boost container shipping, improve supply chain efficiency, and reduce reliance on U.S. ports. 目前,只有五个加拿大主要港口有加拿大边境服务局官员在现场工作,限制了能力,并造成海路利用不足。 Currently, only five major Canadian ports have on-site Canada Border Services Agency officers, limiting capacity and contributing to underutilization of the seaway. 海洋商会说,为诸如汉密尔顿、温莎和魁北克市等内陆港口配备海关设施,每年可产生1.32亿美元,支持关键产业。 The Chamber of Marine Commerce says equipping inland ports like Hamilton, Windsor, and Quebec City with customs facilities could generate $132 million annually and support key industries. 市镇领导人和边境事务局已表示支持,但扩大工作尚待进行。 Municipal leaders and the CBSA have expressed support, though expansion remains pending.
