Kitimat is celebrating the announcement that LNG Canada’s Phase 2 expansion is among the first projects to be fast-tracked for regulatory support, as declared by Prime Minister Mark Carney. This move places Kitimat alongside four other communities whose projects are expected to significantly impact the Canadian economy.
Mayor Phil Germuth expressed pride in the recognition, noting that the inclusion of LNG Canada’s Phase 2 underscores the progress the company has made in advancing the project and strengthens Kitimat’s position as an economic hub, particularly in manufacturing and energy sectors.
The District of Kitimat also expressed gratitude for the ongoing support of the Haisla Nation, whose partnership has been integral to making both LNG Canada Phase 1 and the Cedar LNG project possible. These projects position Kitimat as a leader in the Canadian energy industry, promising further growth and economic opportunity for the region.
