Moosonee Transportation Limited, commonly known as MTL in the James and Hudson Bay region was originally Hudson Bay Company Transport. In 1974, Fednav and Crowley Maritime through their associated company Arctic Transportation Limited purchased Hudson Bay Transport and all of its assets from the Hudson Bay Company and renamed the company Moosonee Transportation Limited. In the late 1980’s, a group led by Moosonee based James Bay Travel Limited, purchased MTL and the company has remained operating under the James Bay Travel Ltd ownership celebrating it’s 50 th anniversary in 2024.
