Video: BC LNG: Natural Gas Minister’s extraordinary claims

Shared by CommonSenseCanadian

In a recent speech to the Union of BC Municipalities, BC’s Minister of Natural Gas Development makes some bullish claims on the future of BC’s nascent liquefied natural gas industry. Coleman describes himself as an “optimist”, championing a core BC Liberal policy that promises untold “prosperity” for the province from the industry, which intends to cool and ship massive amounts of fracked gas to new markets in Asia.
