Read excerpt
BC NDP Leader David Eby celebrated the announcement of the expansion of the LNG Canada facility in Kitimat on Tuesday with the prime minister, saying it will provide billions of dollars in economic benefits for the province.

Rob Shaw: Party leaders' natural resource promises not enough to move on B.C. deficit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
BC NDP Leader David Eby and Conservative Leader Lorne Doerkson are both pitching natural resource growth as a cure for the province’s ailing economy, but in neither case does it appear enough to make a major impact on the provincial deficit. Eby visited Prince Rupert on Monday to announce a plan to double critical mineral and mining exports.

The report released Thursday was commissioned by a coalition of unions and shipbuilding associations that is encouraging the B.C. government to build the next round of ferries in-province. It found that BC Ferries’ decision to outsource construction of four new major vessels to a state-owned Chinese sh
Rob Shaw: Forestry sector urges action in 'crisis time' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
B.C.’s forest sector has issued an urgent warning to the government, saying help is needed to prevent the industry from collapsing in the wake of new U.S. tariffs. A rare letter Wednesday from a united forest industry, including companies and unionized workers, warned the industry is at a breaking point from a combination of government policies, existing 45 per cent softwood lumber tariffs, and new 50 per cent American tariffs on manufactured wood products. “We’re just trying to impress upon the
