In a previous visit to Canso in 2020, the Canso Area Development Association held a competition between Canso and Whitehead based on the best welcoming of the ship to each port. This time, the Development Assoication says it thought it might be a good sporting idea to extend a similar challenge to Port Hawkesbury. Port Hawkesbury Mayor Brenda Chisholm-Beaton has accepted the challenge.
