From trading containers to loading grain ships to hosting cruise passangers, the Port of Vancouver is one of the largest employers in British Columbia. At the secondary level our presentations take a more indepth look at the business of the cargo that we trade and the nations that we trade with. Presentations can focus on careers at the port, the business of the port, transportation and security or the environment of the Port.
The interactive interpretive centre is a great place to begin learning about the vast Port of Vancouver and its economic benefits to Canada as a whole. Please see attached work sheets for key vocabulary and excercises.
