Energy Minister Tim Hodgson announced an LNG deal to supply Germany from the approved $10B Ksi Lisims project in B.C., marking a shift from former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

“I’m extremely pleased to announce that the leading German energy utility Securing Energy for Europe (SEFE) has signed a new agreement to buy liquefied natural gas offtake from Ksi Lisims LNG,” he told reporters Wednesday morning.
