Canada,Greenhouse-Gas Emissions,Data

GCT Canada Limited Partnership is taking the federal government to court to prevent the publication of greenhouse-gas emissions data from its Deltaport facility. The company argues that the information is a trade secret and releasing it would cause financial loss and harm its competitive position.

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

“GCT Canada is continually negotiating with existing customers to renew agreements or negotiating with potential new customers,” the application says. “Existing and potential customers place a significantly increasing importance on sustainability issues for those they contract with, including the emissions of the container terminals that they use.”

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. The company says its emissions data could be used by competitors, customers and others to cause the company losses.
