Industrial Corridor Profile

 

Only 35 kilometres east of Moose Jaw in the RM of Pense, a significant industrial investment already exists. The existing industrial cluster at this site includes one of the largest nitrogen-based fertilizer production facilities in Western Canada, a major potash mine, a salt production plant, a phosphate distribution centre and an ethanol plant. Another fertilizer plant is currently being built.

The Corridor is the largest economic region in this province, accounting for 25% of Saskatchewan’s annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP). About one-quarter of Saskatchewan’s population (240,000) lives in the Corridor, providing access to the province’s largest workforce.

Moose Jaw is the CPR terminus of the Soo Line, providing a direct link to Minneapolis and Chicago and is home to the largest main-line refuelling facility on the CPR North American Network.

The Corridor has one of the lowest cost environments for industrial investment in North America according to KPMG, and the lowest cost transportation and distribution services in the Province.
