Summary#

Under the Canada Marine Act, the Minister of Transport amended the letters patent for the Trois-Rivières Port Authority to add a specific parcel of land to its list of non-federal properties. The supplementary letters patent were issued on February 9, 2026 and take effect when the sale is registered in the Land register of Quebec.

What it does#

  • Adds lot 1 019 121 (an immovable of 2,705.9 m2) to Schedule C of the port authority’s letters patent.
  • The lot is described as part of the cadastre of Quebec, registration division of Trois‑Rivières, city of Trois‑Rivières, and is shown on a plan prepared on September 29, 2008 (plan number 14,189).
  • The amendment becomes effective on the date the deed of sale is registered in the Land register of Quebec.

Who's affected#

  • Trois-Rivières Port Authority — it will legally hold the added parcel.
  • Local property owners, businesses and anyone involved in port operations or local planning in the city of Trois‑Rivières may notice changes if the land is developed or used by the port.
  • It is unclear from the notice what the Authority plans to do with the parcel, so the precise set of affected people or businesses is not specified.

Why it matters#

  • The change formally expands the port authority’s list of non-federal lands it can manage or use.
  • That can affect local land use, port activities, and municipal planning depending on how the parcel is used.
  • The notice is largely an administrative step; it does not say what the land will be used for, so immediate impacts are uncertain.
