(Vancouver) BC's natural gas producers are reaping huge rewards from a hot continental energy market, a new CCPA study shows. "Who's making money on natural gas and what should governments do?" finds that the province's natural gas producers are the greatest beneficiaries of the current situation. Much attention has been focused on provincial royalty income, yet curiously absent from public scrutiny are the natural gas producers.

The CCPA’s bold vision and creative solutions help us imagine better futures for all. Its efforts to build bridges between labour, industry, and civil society and mentor young activists lay the foundation for realizing those provocative futures. I consider my support for the CCPA an investment in a better future for British Columbia.
