Canada LNG Alliance – new name, same old fossil fuel giants
This
is an industry support group focused primarily on maximizing profits.
The companies that make up this alliance have consistently demonstrated
contempt for democratic processes, Indigenous rights and this planet’s
ability to sustain life. We should all be on high alert about
misinformation distributed by the Canada LNG Alliance.

Industry
associations like the Canada LNG Alliance help already-powerful
companies combine powers with others for maximum impact. The Canadian
Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) is another example – CAPP has
consistently undermined effective climate policy in Canada and has a
history of interfering with the realization of Indigenous
sovereignty. In the middle of the COVID-19 crisis, CAPP took the
opportunity to push its policy wish list on the federal government. A
secret memo revealed their asks included major deregulation and
subsidies for the oil and gas industry but CAPP hid these demands behind
a smokescreen of ”economic recovery.”
