The St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation runs the Canadian half of the Seaway from its headquarters in Cornwall, a fitting base for a city wedged between Highway 401, a mainline railway and the river itself in eastern Ontario. Cornwall Harbour is a bulk and project-cargo facility, handling mainly salt, grain, aggregate and oversized breakbulk pieces; there is no liner container service, so the nearest full-container gateway is Montreal. Facing Massena, New York across the river, Cornwall is also a significant port of entry and customs point from the United States. Beyond the quay, the city has grown into a major distribution and warehousing centre, consolidating consumer goods, paper products and pharmaceuticals for the Ottawa–Montreal corridor. For forwarders, the harbour suits bulk, breakbulk and project shipments, while containerised or customs-heavy cargo is better routed via Montreal or Salaberry-de-Valleyfield.
