LNG2023

The Liquefied Natural Gas 2023 (LNG2023) conference takes place in Vancouver from July 10 to 13, 2023. The Canadian Gas Association (CGA) is organizing the event. Delegates from all over the world are attending this crucial conference on liquefied natural gas (LNG) at a time of global energy crisis.

International participation and government commitment to LNG2023

CGA sends letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau with conference updates. Unfortunately, the Prime Minister and certain members of his cabinet are unable to attend due to busy schedules. However, the CGA appreciates Tourism Minister Randy Boissonnault’s opening address, which underscores the importance of developing a large-scale LNG economy for Canada.

Representatives from 85 countries, including energy ministers, ambassadors, senior government officials and CEOs of major companies in the sector, are attending the conference. This demonstrates the growing interest in Canadian LNG and Canada’s essential role in meeting the world’s energy needs.

The importance of Aboriginal involvement and the diversity of energy issues at LNG2023

The conference highlights the need to broaden the discussion on energy. In addition to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, it is crucial to address environmental, economic and resilience issues to ensure global energy security.

One striking aspect is the involvement of Aboriginal communities in the development of LNG in Canada. They play a key role as environmental regulators, partners, investors and project champions. Their participation offers a path to economic reconciliation for indigenous peoples, and brings many other benefits.

LNG2023: Natural gas in Canada, an international opportunity for a sustainable energy future

Natural gas is Canada’s fastest-growing energy source, meeting nearly 40% of national energy demand. CGA aims to capitalize on this success by showcasing it on an international scale.

CGA is open to working with the Prime Minister and members of his cabinet to build on the success of LNG2023. Canada plays a key role in the liquefied natural gas sector, and this conference offers a unique opportunity to shape a sustainable energy future.
