Alberta and B.C. in talks to expand Canadian LNG "VANCOUVER — Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says her province has begun talks with British Columbia on expanding the reach of Canadian natural gas in the global market.
Smith says she and B.C. counterpart David Eby began the discussion two weeks ago to explore leveraging Article 6 of the United Nations Paris Accord, which allows Canada to gain carbon credits for reducing emissions abroad.
Speaking on the final day of the international LNG 2023 conference in Vancouver, Smith says she wants to see Alberta and B.C. "pioneer" a way to use Article 6 to spur more natural-gas export projects that would supply Asia and reduce carbon emissions there."
