dc.description.abstractA proposal to build a state-of-the-art container terminal in Guysborough County Nova Scotia has been announced by a private firm. This paper uses a cost-benefit analysis to evaluate the profitability of the firm but also seeks to go beyond the commercial benefits and asses the scenario from a regional development perspective, answering the question of whether or not Guysborough County, Nova Scotia will be better off should the Melford Atlantic Gateway be built and bring millions of containers from around the globe into this small relatively rural community.en_US
