Replying to Sukh Dhaliwal (Liberal)

“Mr. Speaker, demand for LNG is growing, and Canada is the cleanest supplier to help meet the demand. During the last election, we committed to making Canada an energy superpower, and we are delivering on that promise. Less than a year ago, LNG Canada delivered its first exports to Asia, and we are already expanding further. Can the minister update the House on the efforts to expand Canadian LNG exports?”
