Green-leaning governments, federal and provincial, suddenly speaking in favour of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and other resource development?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It began with British Columbia Premier David Eby telling&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/energynow.ca\/2024\/07\/british-columbia-premier-walks-tightrope-between-resource-boom-green-goals\/?source=de&amp;wtv=claritymediapr@gmail.com&amp;utm_source=CA+EnergyNow+Daily+News&amp;utm_campaign=0e49717dba-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_8_21_2019_11_45_COPY_01&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_e90c2af3d5-0e49717dba-177232101\">Bloomberg News<\/a>&nbsp;that he\u2019s optimistic that&nbsp;LNG Canada\u2019s LNG-for-export plant at Kitimat, BC can be expanded in a way that satisfies its investors but without supercharging the province\u2019s emissions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This came as LNG Canada was reported continuing to look into possible Phase Two expansion. Such expansion would double the plant\u2019s output of LNG to 14 million tonnes a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Industry reports say LNG Canada has been discussing with prime contractors their potential availability down the road. A key, though, is whether and how B.C. can provide enough&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/resourcework2.devstudio.work\/bc-hydros-impossible-task\">electrical power<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LNG Canada plant now is going through a pre-production testing program, and has finished welding on its first \u201ctrain\u201d (production line). LNG Canada is expected to go into full operation in mid-2025. And Malaysia\u2019s Petronas (a 25% partner) has added&nbsp;three new&nbsp;LNG&nbsp;carriers to its fleet, to gear up for&nbsp;LNG Canada&#8217;s launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Eby story noted that he has also thrown his support behind other projects \u2014 including hydrogen production and an electric-vehicle battery recycling plant \u2014 to create jobs and keep B.C.\u2019s economy growing at a challenging time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then came Ottawa\u2019s minister of innovation, science and industry, Fran\u00e7ois-Philippe Champagne, who visited the Haisla Nation in B.C. to support its Cedar LNG project with partner Pembina Pipeline Corp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Champagne declared: \u201cThis is the kind of project we want to see, where there are all the elements supporting&nbsp;attracting investments in British Columbia.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His government&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/innovation-science-economic-development\/news\/2024\/07\/government-of-canada-supporting-innovative-majority-indigenousowned-natural-resource-project-from-cedar-lng.html\">news release<\/a>&nbsp;said: \u201cThis project presents an exciting opportunity for Canada, as it is expected to commercialize one of the lowest-carbon-intensity liquified natural gas&nbsp;(LNG) facilities in the world and represents the largest Indigenous-majority-owned infrastructure project in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Champagne went on to tell&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.terracestandard.com\/local-news\/federal-minister-visits-haisla-amid-cedar-lng-negotiations-7433088\"><em>The Terrace Standard<\/em><\/a>&nbsp;that \u201cWe are in active conversations with Pembina and Haisla First Nations. We are saying today that we will support the project, but discussions are still ongoing.\u2019&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There had already been reports that Export Development Canada is set to lend Cedar LNG $400-$500 million.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And then came federal minister Jonathan Wilkinson,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stalbertgazette.com\/local-news\/energy-conference-ends-with-directive-to-streamline-clean-growth-projects-9183894\">announcing<\/a>&nbsp;to the national Energy and Mines Ministers&#8217; Conference in Calgary that Ottawa \u201cwill get clean growth projects built faster\u201d by streamlining regulatory processes and moving to \u201cmake good approvals faster.\u201d<br>Wilkinson has long talked, too, of streamlining and speeding up approval processes for resource projects in general, especially for mining for critical minerals. \u201c(We&#8217;re) looking at how do we optimise the regulatory and permanent processes so you can take what is a 12- to 15-year process and bring it down to maybe five.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;Canada Energy Regulator now is inviting input on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cerdialogue.ca\/efficiency-project\/\">its plans<\/a>&nbsp;to improve the efficiency and predictability of project reviews.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All this as Deloitte Canada consultants reported that&nbsp;\u201cthe natural gas sector is poised for significant growth, driven by ongoing LNG projects and rising demand for gas-fired electricity generation in Canada.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And energy giant BP said that under its two new energy \u2018scenarios\u2019,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bp.com\/en\/global\/corporate\/energy-economics\/energy-outlook.html\">world demand<\/a>&nbsp;for LNG in 2030 grows by 30-40% above 2022 levels, then increases by more than 25% over the subsequent 20 years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilkinson earned pats on the back from some provincial ministers at the Calgary conference, but&nbsp;Alberta&#8217;s&nbsp;minister of energy and minerals, Brian Jean, aired concerns over how Ottawa\u2019s new \u201cgreenwashing\u201d law would impact the oil and gas sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under it, companies (and individuals) must prove the truth of their public statements on climate benefits of their products or programs, or face potential millions in fines. But the ground rules for this legislation have not yet been announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Jean was not alone. Other critics included&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fnlngalliance.com\/2024\/07\/10\/blog-new-greenwashing-law-hits-first-nations\/\">CEO Karen Ogen<\/a>&nbsp;of the First Nations LNG Alliance, who said the new law \u201ccould be used as one more tool to discourage resource companies that might seek Indigenous partnerships, and to obstruct Indigenous investment in energy projects, and frustrate Indigenous benefits from resource projects.\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilkinson replied that the Competition Bureau needs to provide information so people understand how the rules apply and what is actionable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think once that is done, this will be, perhaps, a bit of a different conversation. I would expect that the guidance will be something like folks simply have to have a good faith basis to believe what they&#8217;re saying. And assuming that is true, I think the sector probably will calm down.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No pats on the back for Ottawa, though, from the mining industry or the oil-and-gas sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aiming to combat China\u2019s efforts to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.scotiabank.com\/ca\/en\/about\/economics\/economics-publications\/post.other-publications.insights-views.critical-minerals--december-18--2023-.html\">corner the market<\/a>&nbsp;in critical minerals, Canada is&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/canada-move-protect-mining-sector-205920184.html\">making it harder<\/a>&nbsp;for foreign firms to take over big Canadian mining companies. Major mining shares quickly dropped in value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And Heather Exner-Pirot&nbsp;of the Macdonald-Laurier Institute and special advisor to the Business Council of Canada, says:&nbsp;&#8220;We produced less critical minerals last year than we did in 2019. We\u2019re producing less copper, less nickel, less platinum, less cobalt, all these things. And the investment has not picked up; in real dollars it\u2019s almost half of what it was in 2013 . . . and the regulatory system is still a huge barrier to that development.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of that, the petroleum sector has long protested that federal moves to limit oil and gas emissions will, in practice, limit production.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While governments signalled support for LNG,&nbsp;supporters of natural-resource development quickly sent clear messages to governments of all levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calgary-based&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.canadaaction.ca\/social_media\">Canada Action<\/a>, for one, reminded governments that the oil and gas sector is projected to generate more than in $1.1 trillion in revenue to governments from 2000 through 2032.&nbsp; And that the oil and gas sector supports nearly 500,000 direct and indirect jobs across the country.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then the industry-supporting&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/fraserinstitute.org\/studies\/ottawas-regulatory-assault-on-the-extraction-sector-and-its-impact-on-investment\">Fraser Institute<\/a>&nbsp;pointed out that&nbsp;business investment in Canada\u2019s extractive sector (mining, quarrying, and oil and gas) has declined substantially since 2014.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn fact, adjusted for inflation, business investment in the oil and gas sector has declined 52.1 per cent since 2014, falling from $46.6 billion in 2014 to $22.3 billion in 2022. In percentage terms the decline in non-conventional oil extraction was even larger at 71.2 percent, falling from $37.3 billion in 2014 to $10.7 billion in 2022. . . .&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOne of the major challenges facing Canadian prosperity are regulatory barriers, particularly in the oil and gas sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over to government, then, to reduce those barriers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the recent positive moves listed above from two levels of government, there\u2019s an obvious question: Would there happen to be federal and provincial elections in the offing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes: B.C. will hold its next general election on or before&nbsp;October 19. And the feds go to the polls for an election on or before October 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stand by for more promises.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sudden, newfound support for LNG projects in Canada is truly remarkable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":83575,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[706],"class_list":["post-81161","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-oil-gas","tag-throwback"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Governments now back LNG projects?
