Power not ships importance of new seaway

Seaway will shift iron ore freight to lake freighters

National survey notes Seaway completion will release lake boats into the St Lawrence gulf rather than bringing ocean ships to the Great Lakes. Labrador and Ungava ore bound for Pennsylvania and Ohio steel mills are poised to become the largest cargo, with likely rate drops and heavy competition at the head of the lakes for return trips to the lower St Lawrence.
