About The Roberts Bank Terminal 2 Project
Roberts Bank Terminal 2 in Delta is a once-in-a-generation project that will unlock $100 billion of trade capacity annually and create tens of thousands of jobs. The project is uniquely poised to deliver for Canada and federal goals to double non-U.S. trade over the next decade, with consent from 27 First Nations and key environmental approvals already in place.

About The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority
The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority is the arm’s-length federal agency that stewards the lands and waters that make up the Port of Vancouver, alongside the enduring stewardship of First Nations. As a Canada Port Authority, it is accountable to the federal Minister of Transport and operates pursuant to the Canada Marine Act. Its purpose is to enable Canada’s trade through the Port of Vancouver by being reliable and innovative, while protecting the environment.

The Port of Vancouver is Canada’s gateway to diverse markets, enabling trade of approximately $365 billion every year with 170 countries. Its 29 major deep-water terminals and more than 1,000 tenants move goods and people across five sectors (auto, bulk, breakbulk, container and cruise). The port is made up of approximately 16,000 ha of water, 1,500 ha of land and 350 km of shoreline. It borders 16 municipalities and intersects the traditional territories and treaty lands of more than 35 Coast Salish First Nations. The Port of Vancouver is the fourth largest port in North America by tonnage and sustains more than 132,000 supply chain and related jobs across Canada.
