Prosperity at What Cost

Sold out — that’s how it feels.
Cedar LNG may be Indigenous-majority owned, but we need to ask: at what cost?

Yes, it’s being marketed as the “cleanest and lowest-carbon LNG in the world,” powered by BC electricity. But LNG is still a fossil fuel — one that contributes to climate change, environmental degradation, and long-term harm to the land and water many Indigenous communities rely on.

Calling this ‘clean’ is greenwashing.

This project may create jobs and bring revenue, but it also locks us into another generation of fossil fuel dependency — all while communities across BC struggle with wildfires, drought, and a housing crisis.

True prosperity shouldn't come at the expense of the climate or the health of our future generations.

We can’t afford to keep celebrating fossil fuel projects — even “cleaner” ones — while the planet burns.
