Seven million tonnes a year. That's how much of Ksi Lisims LNG's output is now locked in by buyers, 58% of the project's capacity, after a second German offtake deal in two weeks. The other milestone matters just as much: Lax Kw'alaams and Metlakatla, two nations that had taken the project to court, are dropping their legal challenges after signing benefits agreements. 16 of 20 nations along the pipeline route are now on board. A $ 20-billion final investment decision could come before year's end. @nbennett_ca on an Indigenous-owned project clearing the last hurdles: resourceworks.com/ksi-lisims… #BCPoli #LNG

Greater Victoria spent its way up to a projected $95 million trying to plug cruise ships into shore power at Ogden Point. Then it walked away. That's the electrification problem in one number. @timothyrenshaw asks the chicken-and-egg question: which comes first, electrification mandates or infrastructure investments? resourceworks.com/onshore-po… #BCPoli #Energy #Shipping

In Port Edward the @CascadiaSeaweed Biorefinery opens in 2026 through a partnership with the @metlakatlaFN Development Corporation. Kelp cultivation feeds global markets in agriculture and livestock, expanding quietly but steadily where other coastal industries are currently struggling. @JamesRRushton1 on why kelp farming deserves attention and support: resourceworks.com/building-c… #BCPoli #Aquaculture

Walk into any refinery, pulp mill or power plant in Canada. The pressure vessels, the steel, the welded pipe, none of it assembled itself. It was built by people in trades most Canadians have never heard of. Boilermakers, ironworkers, pipefitters, welders. They've kept the lights on and the mills running for 165 years. Robert MacIntosh spent five decades doing it, from Nova Scotia to B.C., and earned the first Red Seal for boilermakers in Canada: resourceworks.com/the-trades… #SkilledTrades #Manufacturing #BCPoli

Something feels different at the global Energy Show in Calgary this week. The energy conversation is becoming grounded again. The more we talk about doubling grids, powering AI, building industry and lowering emissions, the clearer it becomes: reliable energy isn’t optional. Physics always has a way of asserting itself. #GES2026 #GlobalEnergyShow #BuildCanada

More housecleaning evidently still needed for the Carney energy vision to be realized. As @Resource_Works’ Margareta Dovgal recently told a Commons committee, “You can’t build what your policies are designed to stop.”

Live from @energy_show! @sjmuir sits down with @altagas SVP Chris Prokop to talk about Canada’s energy advantage and where our energy story is going. Stay tuned to hear the full conversation on the next episode of @OnPowerStruggle.

“We are expecting demand to grow by about 20% by the end of this decade, and by roughly 50% by 2050” - @bchydro CEO Charlotte Mitha. @nbennett_ca on why B.C. needs to pay attention to this. If it doesn’t, we are all going to be paying more than we need to for power in the future: resourceworks.com/why-natura… #BCPoli #Energy #naturalgas

"The fact that we have had to speak up as small resource communities is a tragedy and an embarrassment." Port McNeill Mayor, James Furney, during his keynote last week at the ESF Municipal Energy Dialogue in Edmonton. @ESF_Canada His point: small forestry towns shouldn't have to fight Ottawa and Victoria for access to the resources surrounding them. But they do. #BCPoli #Forestry #Cdnpoli

Yesterday @ESF_Canada held our first Conference w/ the great collaboration of @Resource_Works and friends including @cfibAB, @CanadaPropane @IRCCanada @FNPower @uOttawa_Energy @CDNTrades @SUMAConnect @AMMManitoba @MunicipalNL Looking forward to the next Energy Dialogues!!

Plenty of people want to treat Alberta separatism as Alberta's problem to fix. But the grievance has a long history: 1970s price controls, an export tax that punished sales to Alberta and Saskatchewan's biggest customer, then the National Energy Program. Add TMX, the Northern Gateway death, the tanker ban and C-69, and you get the alienation that produced Wexit, and now a referendum. @JamesRRushton1 traces the roots of Prairie Separatism and why Canada must listen to Alberta to build a unified future. resourceworks.com/it-is-a-me… #ABPoli #BCPoli #CAPoli

"What can be provided from Northeast BC is literally in the trillions of dollars worth of economic opportunity for this province." @LarryNeufeldCon, MLA for Peace River South, on why the transition to a zero-carbon economy will take far longer than people want to believe, and what the trillions coming from natural resources pay for: healthcare, education and quality of life for people across the province #TheWorkWeDo #NorthernBC #BCEconomy #NaturalResources

Natural gas isn’t greenwashing – it’s historical accuracy under attack. The B.C. Utilities Commission shift to “fossil gas” inverts the historical reality, our @sjmuir argues. resourceworks.com/natural-ga…

Team BC in Ottawa to advance partnership on $79 Billion in critical minerals and mining development. Today, a delegation from @MA_BC, including members from @TeckResources, @TasekoMines, @CenterraGold, @SeabridgeInc, @FPX_Nickel and @elkvalleyr @GlencoreCanada joined @JagrupBrar1, Minister of Mining and Critical Minerals in Ottawa as part of a ‘Team BC’ effort to advance major mining projects and strengthen Canada’s economic and national security. British Columbia is uniquely positioned to lead: 🔹 19 of Canada’s 34 critical minerals are found or produced in BC 🔹 31 major projects in development,(~$79B in potential economic activity) 🔹 Canada’s leading producer of copper and steelmaking coal Recent project approvals show progress—but faster, more coordinated permitting between federal and provincial governments will be key to maintaining momentum and attracting global investment. A strong, coordinated approach between governments is essential if Canada is going to fully unlock the potential of critical minerals. #CriticalMinerals #Mining #TeamBC #EconomicGrowth #BCPoli #CDNPoli @goehring_m @TimMcEwan1

“These projects represent over $41 billion in near-term investment, tens of thousands of new jobs… and $21 billion in tax revenue for governments,” That's what @MA_BC president @goehring_m said of 31 critical mineral, metal and steelmaking coal projects at a press conference in Ottawa this morning. But the boom is at risk from UNDRIP lawfare. Their ask: restore certainty on Section 35, and clarify that Aboriginal rights don't extend to U.S. tribes. @nbennett_ca has the story: resourceworks.com/b-c-needs-… #Cdnpoli #BCPoli #mining
