• “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.
