Panama Canal boon to British Columbia apple growers
The opening of the Panama Canal promises big freight savings for British Columbia growers. Rates to Europe from west coast ports would cut costs, with Seattle and Portland to Europe priced at 3.74 dollars per 100 pounds for dried goods, and boxed apples possibly at 8.74 dollars per 100 pounds, saving crews about 120 to 200 dollars per carload on shipments to England and Hamburg. Vancouver is expected to benefit as traffic starts via the canal.
