Cedar LNG Partners, the country’s first and largest Indigenous majority-led liquified natural gas facility, wants to increase its natural gas capacity to 3.75 million tonnes per year, up from three million tonnes per year, according to paperwork filed with the B.C. government on Sept. 16. (The Logic, The Globe and Mail)

Talking point: The proposal comes amid signs the federal government has warmed to major natural gas projects. The prospect of boosting Canadian LNG production is not without critics, with some environmental groups warning that demand may wane for the fossil fuel. Cedar LNG Partners argues in the new proposal that increased gas flow wouldn’t push greenhouse gas emissions beyond the previously approved range, but would increase revenue for the federal and provincial governments and the Haisla Nation, which is leading the investment with Pembina Pipeline as a partner.
