Sault Ste. Marie advances $200M deep-water port plan at Leigh’s Bay, backed by federal support and improved economic conditions.
After decades of failed attempts, Sault Ste.
Marie is advancing a $200 million plan to build a deep-water port at Leigh’s Bay, leveraging its strategic location on the St. Mary’s River.
Renewed momentum comes from a March 2026 visit by Canada’s Transportation Minister Steve MacKinnon, signaling federal interest.
The project aims to create a multi-modal logistics hub, boost regional trade, and diversify the local economy, building on past efforts that stalled due to funding, shifting priorities, and environmental concerns.
While still in development, officials say current economic and infrastructure conditions make this the most viable opportunity yet.
