It could be the spurring point for more resource extraction in the north which could lead to jobs and exports but always comes with environmental destruction regardless of the economic impact and continues Canada's dependancy on a resource extraction economy.
Ya I can see that happening pretty easily beyond just being a port.
Make a new port, improve the rail system, and suddenly it's a much better target for resource extraction over the entire area.
