MONTREAL: In reaction to the federal government rejection of the GNL-Quebec liquified natural gas (LNG) project, Patrick Bonin, Climate and Energy Campaigner at Greenpeace Canada:
“The federal government’s rejection is the final nail in the coffin of GNL-Québec. Now the federal and provincial governments must apply the same logic to all other oil and gas expansion projects and reject them as incompatible with our climate objectives. This huge victory is the fruit of environmentalists, grassroots activists, and scientists who have fought tirelessly to make governments listen, follow the science and take action to tackle the climate crisis.”
