The B.C. government has given the go-ahead for a $20 billion liquefied natural gas (LNG) project on the province’s North Coast that will produce up to 12 million tonnes of LNG per year by 2028.

The indigenous-led Ksi Lisims LNG project has received the green light from both the province and Ottawa.
