As Canada's largest port, Vancouver's share of imports from Asia and Container in the region has steadily increased.For decades, Vancouver has played an important role in ongoing initiatives developed by Canadian federal, provincial and territorial authorities to create an Asia-Pacific gateway that promotes trade not only between British Columbia and East Asia, but also between Canada and East Asia as a whole.
