The Windsor Port Authority is one of just 17 national ports created by the Canada Marine Act (1999).

This strategic system of 17 ports promotes the national, regional, and local social, environment, and economics objectives of:

• Competitiveness and trade
• Safety, security, and environment
• Commercial development

As such, Port Windsor is focused on promoting and encouraging economic growth in the Windsor-Essex region by leveraging its unique location at the heart of the Great Lakes, a region that represents the third largest global economy. Port Windsor truly connects Windsor-Essex to the world.

As the Authority receives no federal funding to support its operations, it must generate business revenues through leasing of properties, cargo fees, harbour fees, and permits to support a self-sufficient and self-sustaining operation

The Port is governed by a Board of 7 appointed community representatives:

• 1 Federal
• 1 Provincial
• 1 Municipal
• 4 from Port Users (federally appointed)
