Basic Info Shipping Market Access - Map Natural Resources - Map Standard Time Zones - NRC

Located in the heart of North America, Manitoba has expedient access to all major North American markets, and equal access to all major North American seaports for global shipping. Major Canadian markets can be reached in 3 days or less by land and 3 hours or less by air. The most distant US markets and seaports can be reached in 5 days by land and 6 hours by air.

Additionally, Manitoba has its own seaport at Churchill, 1,584 kilometres north of Winnipeg. Only 3,380 nautical miles from Liverpool, Churchill is ideally located for shipping products to and from Europe, as well as Africa, Latin America and the Middle East. Shipping through Churchill eliminates time-consuming navigation, additional handling and high-cost transportation through the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway.
