Canada's busiest port, the Port of Vancouver, is experiencing a surge in auto imports from China compared to the US and Mexico, driven by Tesla's shipment of electric vehicles from its Shanghai gigafactory. Despite challenges like strikes and economic slowdown, the port achieved a record cargo volume last year. County commissioners are set to make a decision on expanding an international ferry operator at a local seaport. The ports of LA and Long Beach saw a significant increase in loaded container imports, up by 32.1% from last year, signaling a booming trade. The CEO of the Port of Vancouver anticipates a potential increase in cargo due to Red Sea attacks.
