We do have an overall vision, but we base what we're going to do on the opportunities that present themselves. As I said in my testimony, we custom-build logistics solutions for our port partners. We have seen that containers are in demand. Actually, from an agricultural perspective, there is a lot of demand to export agriproducts through containerization. With us having the bulk facility there now, it makes it that much easier.
Several farmers have come to us and asked, “Are you going to adopt that?” We said that right now it does not make sense. They're going all the way to Brampton to pick up containers and sometimes not even getting one, and then coming all the way back home just to go back the next day because the containers are not situated.
If we were able to create this hub where the demand is, it would be much better. We know what we would like to do at Picton to set ourselves up for success. Unfortunately, we're limited by our dock space. Now that we have Parrish & Heimbecker there, we're expecting about 20 to 25 ships this year, and possibly as many as 60, because the port is capable of handling that. We need more dock face in order to facilitate that, because time is money. It's important that these ships are in and out, and we don't want to create delays like the congestion that everybody talks about at all of the other facilities. We want to try to avoid that.
