Prince Rupert Port Authority staff were humbled to be among the hundreds of people that took part in the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation Community Walk on September 30th.
This powerful and moving event, organized by Friendship House Association of Prince Rupert, brought the community together in solidarity to commemorate the lives of Indigenous children who were taken to Indian Residential Schools. Members of our team were on the track for the entire walk and contributed to the collective 4,265 laps completed to honour victims, survivors and their families.
Thank you to all the volunteers who made this event possible.
The Prince Rupert Port Authority offices are closed for National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Today we pause to reflect, listen, and learn from the experiences of Indian Residential School survivors and their families.
In honour of #OrangeShirtDay, our entire organization wore orange shirts on Wednesday Sept. 29 to demonstrate our united commitment to advancing reconciliation. Check out @orangeshirtdayeverychildmatter to learn more.

As #RailSafetyWeek wraps up, we want to acknowledge the first responders along the #NorthernBC corridor, who recently honed their skills by receiving special hands-on, live fire training.
These industry-specific sessions were offered in #PrinceGeorge, #BurnsLake, and #Terrace through a partnership between CN Rail's Dangerous Goods team, Emergency Response Assistance Canada and AltaGas.
Rail safety is a shared responsibility and we are proud to see our Gateway partners sharing their knowledge and expertise about the products they transport with the communities in our region.

The SAN service is a newly started service with MSC since early August 2021. The previous record Prince Rupert held was 14,500 TEUs by COSCO Himalayas in 2017.
