#TBT to 2024, when the @rupertrampage celebrated several goals during their home opener. The team is hoping their home opener this Saturday, September 26, goes just as well versus the Terrace River Kings.

Now an annual tradition, the Rampage will be wearing their orange jerseys in recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Make sure you wear orange to the game and cheer the home team on! Puck drops shortly after 7 p.m. at the Jim Ciccone Arena.

The Prince Rupert Port Authority is proud to once again be the title sponsor of the Rampage for the 2026-27 season, and looks forward in continuing these important partnerships between businesses, the local team and the community.

PRPA was honoured to celebrate the grand opening of the Tier 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Ksyen Regional Hospital in Terrace, with Dr. R.E.M. Lee Hospital Foundation, @northernhealthbc and community partners.

The NICU campaign was supported by a $430,000 contribution from PRPA’s Community Investment Fund. This advanced neonatal equipment will help provide specialized care for premature and critically ill newborns, allowing more families to receive the care they need closer to home.

Expanded access to specialized care means fewer families need to travel, reducing the financial and emotional burden of caring for a newborn during an already difficult time.
Since the Community Investment Fund was established, PRPA has invested nearly $2 million in regional healthcare, supporting more than 20 projects that have strengthened healthcare services, infrastructure and equipment across Northern BC.

Have a project in mind that will improve life in the north? Applications will be accepted from October 1st to December 1st. Learn more at rupertport.com/cif

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who came out to support the Northern Savings Credit Union Prince Rupert Terry Fox Run yesterday. This year, together we raised more than $5,000 with approx.1/5 of that total ($945) raised by Team PRPA!

A special shoutout to hometown hero Jim Terrion, who raised $29,000+ this year, bringing his lifetime fundraising total to more than $1 million.

It was a great day for the community to connect and honour Terry's legacy.

See you next year!

THE PRINCE RUPERT ADVANTAGE

Infographic that shows that Prince Rupert offers an 8 day sailing time, making it the shortest Pacific Route

Shortest Pacific Route

The Port of Prince Rupert is North America’s closest port to Asia by up to three days sailing—it’s 36 hours closer to Shanghai than Vancouver and over 68 hours closer than Los Angeles.

Tanker vessel sailing through a safe shipping lane in British Columbia on it's way to Prince Rupert Port

Safe Access to Shipping Lanes

Major marine risks are greatly mitigated by the ideal natural features of our harbour. The Port of Prince Rupert has the deepest harbour in North America, is ice-free year round, and is able to accommodate the largest vessels in the shipping trade.

Taker vessel coming into dock in Port Rupert Port, B.C

Deepest Harbour in North America

Our deep, wide, and protected approaches enjoy a short, direct access to and from Pacific shipping lanes and oers ample room for anchorages. That’s why our pilot time is 2-6 hours less than other major Northwest ports.
