• “Legendary investor Warren Buffett’s decision to walk away from a proposed export terminal for liquefied natural gas in Quebec is
being held up in a new report as a sign that the LNG sector in Canada and elsewhere is on shaky ground. The Global Energy Monitor
report released Monday says Buffett’s move in March underscores the growing political and economic uncertainty that LNG projects
are facing even as governments around the world tout liquefied natural gas as a clean alternative to coal power.

Blog – Natural Gas Distribution and Transmission – Canada and the World – August 2022
Canada is one of the world leaders in natural gas. The previous Harper provided solid policies to better
support LNG. Justin Trudeau came to office and decided that metals, forestry, agriculture, non-metals,
oil, hydrogen, critical metals, lithium, natural gas, and others were not going to be his priority.
Canada is world leader in hydrogen production. The problem bulk of hydrogen production comes from
the production on fossil fuels. Justin Trudeau team continues to push expensive solar and wind farms.
Wind farms and solar can produce hydrogen. The problem is the cost to build out the infrastructure.
Natural gas prices continue to rise due to supply constraints.
