Port throughput down 14% in 2020
The Port of Montreal saw a 14% drop in throughput in 2020, which TVA is blaming not only on the pandemic, but also on rail blockades early in the year and labour actions by some port employees.
A city this size would have needed the same amount of food in lockdown, and we might have bought more electronics to amuse ourselves and make it easier to work from home. Along with the working from home, I imagine we bought less clothes, except for slippers and soft pants, which probably saw a boom…
