BC Plans LNG Plant For The Lower Mainland

Jobs, spin-offs, busier ports, tax revenue(just ok) and new markets. Great news for BC workers and all of Canada. Thank gawd the No Devlopment Party(NDP) lost the election so they couldn't kill these investments before they even get off the ground.
QuoteEnvironmentalists fear a 20-acre natural gas liquefaction plant proposed for somewhere in the Lower Mainland is a step toward a "crazy" fracking presence in B.C.



If approved, the plant could produce 100,000 gallons of liquefied natural gas per day as part of a joint venture involving Ferus Natural Gas Fuels and ENN Canada, a subsidiary of a Chinese company. A specific location has not yet been chosen.



Blaire Lancaster of Ferus said Vancouver was picked as the location for many reasons, including interest by BC Ferries in converting some ships to natural gas and for the amount of truck traffic through the region.



"The plants in Vancouver will specifically target the road transportation industry," Lancaster said. "The other part of it is the marine industry."



But Eoin Madden of the Wilderness Committee said he's concerned the fuel will be used in equipment to increase the province's output of fossil fuels to other nations.



"You've got to remember it's from fracking, and fracking takes the hit the environment takes from gas up to coal levels," said Madden.



Madden said he's concerned the fuel will be used for trucks and equipment to expand LNG exploration and exportation.



"The machinery it will fuel will drive the crazy idea of building an enormous liquefied fracked gas facility all along our coastline," Madden said.



Meanwhile, provincial Energy Minister Rich Coleman stressed the plant is only in the early stages, but supported the idea.



"If you can get into that liquefied activity versus the compressed natural gas you get a further range which can change the entire outlook in regards to natural gas as a fuel for transportation," Coleman said.



Coleman was speaking to reporters in a phone conference during which he detailed plans by foreign investors to build LNG infrastructure in the province

Obvious Li

the best outcome would be the following:



they build the plant in downtown Richmond

they fill the storage tanks to capacity

someone attaches a bomb to the side of one of the tanks

they trigger the detonator

nothing survives west of langley



problem solved

Vanwappiskat is a cesspool filled with the dregs of canadian society (my kids excepted) it is a socialist ghetto harboring hundreds of thousands of queers, drug addicts, gang bangers and other missfits..............perfect location for an LNG plant

I don't know why BC should get it. Nobody on the West coast wants to work anyway. ;)

It depends on what you are acclimatized to Mr. Obvious Li..



I have relatives in Taiwan that feel unbearably cold at 12 degrees.

That is so true. After a couple of months in the Filippines where god stuck the thermostat at "superb" all year round  ... we acclimatized and thrived on high 80s every day



hmmmm ... .and we came back because .... ?

I have no doubt you did. I would love to say goodbye to Canada for good in the next few years for warmer shores and lower taxes.
