If you have a pension, you might already own a piece of Canadian LNG.

Shell’s 40% stake in the LNG Canada terminal at Kitimat is for sale, and some of the world’s largest infrastructure investors are competing for it.

Apollo, Blackstone and KKR all manage money for pension systems, the retirement savings of teachers, public servants and millions of ordinary people.

Closer to home, AIMCo already co-owns the Coastal GasLink pipeline and manages over $115 billion for 31 Alberta pension and government funds. A built, operating terminal that throws off steady revenue for decades is exactly the kind of asset a pension fund exists to hold.

If you’re planning for retirement, say thanks to Canadian LNG!

The same B.C. town that built a salmon cannery in 1889 just opened a seaweed biorefinery.

That's Port Edward on the North Coast, and the new Cascadia Seaweed Biorefinery is a glimpse of where coastal work is heading. While old-growth fights, the looming salmon farm ban and shrinking fishing allocations leave a lot of coastal workers anxious about the future, kelp farming is growing quietly in the background, and it's Indigenous-led.

The operation runs on a partnership between Cascadia Seaweed and the Metlakatla Development Corporation. Lab-cultured kelp spores get set just below the ocean surface, grown with no additives at all, then harvested and turned into products that feed agriculture and livestock markets worldwide. It's built on knowledge Indigenous Peoples have held for thousands of years.

It might not reshape the provincial economy. But for the coastal communities that depend on year-round work, not just a tourist season, it's one more reason to stay.
