As of my knowledge cutoff in October 2021, there isn't a known marine port specifically named "REAL" in Canada. It's possible that it might be a smaller, private, or newly established port not widely recognized or it could be an acronym or a miscommunication.
However, here are descriptions and specifications for a few of Canada's major and significant marine ports:
