I have resided in Fort St. John since 1974. The natural gas industry has always been the backbone of our economy. Over the years, northeast British Columbia has relied on many companies, including Progress Energy, Shell Canada, CNRL and others, to drive our economy. It is not only northeast British Columbia who benefits from natural gas exploration and drilling. The Province of British Columbia and indeed the rest of Canada benefits from the industry through employment, tax revenues, tax sharing etc. Many people from eastern Canada have been able to provide for their families through their employment in the west, not having any industry to support them in their own provinces. I believe we need to be competitive in this industry and get our gas to market. We certainly don’t want to be upstaged by the United States. We should support Pacific NorthWest LNG and the jobs it will create. Revenues received from the industry will benefit all Canadians. I urge the Government of Canada to approve the environmental certificate for Pacific NorthWest LNG.
