EAST COAST LNG PROJECTS PROCEEDING

  Lost in the hyper-focus on British Columbia and its persistent obstruction of energy infrastructure development is the East Coast, where two liquefied natural gas projects are quietly moving forward in Nova Scotia.
  Both Bear Head LNG to be located on the north bank of the Strait of Canso and Pieridae Energy in Goldboro are at different phases of their progress, but unlike what’s going on in B.C. there is a marked absence of opposition
  “There is tremendous support for business and industrial development in the area where the project is located,” said Paul McLean, strategic and regulatory affairs adviser for Bear Head, who said the company benefited from an integrated review process between federal and provincial authorities.
