Legislation to remove barriers for liquefied natural gas is welcomed

According to the BC LNG Alliance, the measures tabled in the legislation provide the LNG industry with a level playing field with other established industries in B.C. These include no industry-specific tax and a hydro rate that is the same industrial rate other industries pay. It is important for B.C.’s LNG projects to not face additional costs other LNG projects in development around the world do not pay, or B.C. risks losing new jobs and benefits, and the opportunity to add value to natural gas.
