VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – Resource Works today highlighted the significance of the Ksi Lisims LNG project as a benchmark for both economic and environmental achievement in Canada. The project’s new economic impact assessment shows it will bring $24 billion to the Canadian economy over 30 years, while sustaining up to 77,000 full-time equivalent jobs nationwide, 87% of them in B.C.
Stewart Muir, President & CEO of the Resource Works Society, said:
“This project is a generational achievement. It proves that when Indigenous leadership, governments, and industry work together with determination, Canada can deliver world-class projects that advance prosperity and climate goals.”
Resource Works congratulates the Nisga’a Nation, the provincial and federal governments, and project partners for ensuring that world-leading climate performance and Indigenous reconciliation are built into the DNA of Ksi Lisims LNG.
