Big rally at "Environment" Minister @juliedabrusin.bsky.social office today (she didn't show up) to say no to any more public dollars for new LNG projects.

Climate bombs that violate Indigenous rights are not in our national interest.

LNG Canada exceeds estimated 2024 global record for burned gas | The Narwhal LNG Canada in Kitimat, B.C., burned more gas in 2025 than any other liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility on record in 2024

Canada always hoped to win at the LNG game. Maybe not in this way.

LNG Canada, the only operating LNG facility in Canada, flared more gas than any other #LNG facility in the world in 2025 despite only starting in July. A record 350 million cubic metres of gas.

RBC, Scotiabank pull back on climate goals TORONTO — RBC and Scotiabank say they're dropping their 2030 targets for reducing financed emissions as governments pull back on climate action and artificial intelligence drives a surge in energy dem...

Quietly quit

"These two banks are letting down Canadians who want a climate safe and liveable future and expect their hard earned savings to be put to positive use, not continuing to finance oil and gas companies that benefit from wars and global conflicts."

Breaking: RBC and Scotiabank ditch their interim 2030 financed emissions reduction targets for their most polluting clients including oil and gas, utilities and automative.

Scotiabank goes further by also abandoning its commitment to reach net zero financed emissions by 2050.

Big oil profits as Iran ceasefire offers no relief for businesses and consumers High oil prices since the start of the Iran war are set to deliver a multi-billion-dollar windfall for Canada and its oil companies – but the impact on other businesses and consumers threatens to destabilize a tariff-embattled economy.

Only #BigOil & Gas in Canada benefits from war - everyone else: small businesses, to consumers, to farmers and even other industrial sectors lose out.

THIS is why hitching our future on more oil & gas doesn't make any sense. @nationalobserver.com
