Immediately north of the elevator were the buildings accommodating the federal government's Department of Railways and Canals that supervised construction of the elevator and the docking facilities. George Kydd was in charge of construction at the port.
By Order in Council P.C. 1250 dated June 28, 1933, (Ex. 1471(c) ), the port of Churchill was proclaimed a public harbour, its limits were defined, and Mr. George Kydd, Resident Engineer of the Department of Railways and Canals at Churchill, was appointed Harbour Master without remuneration.
(Churchill, in 1930, was a scene of great activity. The Winnipeg contractor—Carter, Halls, Aldinger—was busy completing the construction of the 2.5 million bushel capacity grain elevator that was the port's greatest facility for its overseas trade. This involved a work force of about 1,500 men. George Kydd was in charge of construction at the port).
At least ships are in safe hands once they arrive at the Port of Churchill. The George Kidd and the larger H. M. Wilson are the 2 tugboats that assist the oceangoing vessels in docking.
