B.C. Company,Canada,Container Terminal

A B.C. company is taking the federal government to court to prevent the release of five years' worth of greenhouse-gas emissions data from Canada's largest container terminal, citing it as a trade secret.

The B.C. company that operates Canada's largest container terminal is going to court against the federal government to keep five years worth of greenhouse-gas emissions data from the facility secret.

The company says it provided the data covering 2017 to 2022 to Environment and Climate Change Canada, but the ministry rejected a request to keep the data confidential in February. GCT Canada says in the judicial review application that the ministry is wrongfully singling out Deltaport and that no facilities run by competitors are required to report emissions numbers.“Publishing the Information would make Deltaport the only container terminal facility in Canada that publishes this type of information,” the application says.

GCT Canada spokesman Marko Dekovic said in an interview Monday that when the company asked for the data to be kept confidential, the government declined, and the company’s “only remedy was to file for this judicial review.

The Environment Ministry deferred comment to Transport Canada, which isn’t named in the judicial review application.Total solar eclipse: Canadians soak up once-in-a-lifetime spectacleRead
