ALTAGAS ANNOUNCES LONG-TERM GLOBAL EXPORTS TOLLING AGREEMENT
CALGARY, AB, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ - AltaGas Ltd. ("AltaGas" or the "Company") (TSX: ALA) is pleased to announce an incremental long-term tolling agreement that advances the Company's commercial de-risking and continues to reduce long-term commodity exposure across the enterprise. Keyera Corp. ("Keyera") will flow an additional 12,500 Bbls/d of liquified petroleum gases ("LPGs") through AltaGas' west coast export facilities. The incremental tolling volumes will commence in 2028, post the Keyera Fort Saskatchewan III expansion project going into service. This agreement expands on the 12,500 Bbls/d of long-term export capacity that Keyera previously contracted for and was announced in February of this year. In aggregate, Keyera will now have 25,000 Bbls/d of LPG export capacity from AltaGas' west coast facilities under 15-year tolling agreements with a growing portion of Keyera's LPGs being directed to premium downstream markets in Asia. Demand for Global Markets Access Remains Robust The importance of market diversification and the strategic advantage of AltaGas' global exports platform is being reinforced in the current market with U.S. and global tariffs creating increased market uncertainty. AltaGas provides its customers the opportunity for protection against tariff and counter-tariff impacts and ensures access to the highest priced global markets. As Canadian upstream production continues to grow, we believe it is critical to connect more of Canada's vital energy products to premium global markets for the benefit of all Canadians. AltaGas is positioned to benefit from the long-term fundamentals of growing Canadian natural gas and natural gas liquids ("NGL") production, strong Asian demand and the Company's structural shipping advantage from the west coast. AltaGas has exceeded its long-term tolling target across its global exports portfolio and will continue to evaluate additional long-term contracts. Construction progress on the Ridley Island Energy Export Facility ("REEF") continues to progress. Uplands work is advancing with overburden removal finished and rock blasting nearing completion. Offsite fabrication is progressing according to the execution plan. Fabrication is taking place in Asia with the LPG storage vessels and bullets over 70 percent complete. Compression and refrigeration fabrication is also progressing offsite in controlled manufacturing environments, in Canada, on a modular basis. Progress on the jetty continues to accelerate and is recovering from weather-related delays experienced during the winter. Over 60 percent of total project costs are now incurred or committed, further de-risking construction execution. About AltaGas AltaGas is a leading North American infrastructure company that connects customers and markets to affordable and reliable sources of energy. The Company operates a diversified energy infrastructure business that is focused on delivering resilient and durable value for its stakeholders. From wellhead to tidewater, AltaGas' Midstream business is focused on providing its customers with safe and reliable service and connectivity that facilitates the best outcomes for their businesses. This includes global market access for North American LPGs, which provides North American producers and aggregators with the best netbacks for LPGs while delivering diversity of supply and stronger energy security to its downstream customers in Asia.

RBC helps to address food insecurity as part of $2 billion toward community investment by 2035 Français
$10 million global donation to help feed communities includes employee matching TORONTO, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ - RBC, RBC Foundation® and RBC Foundation USA announced they are committing $10 million globally to support organizations that are addressing food insecurity in communities, as part of its ambition to address growing inequality. As part of its Purpose Framework, RBC aims to support inclusive opportunities for prosperity, improving the wellbeing and resilience of its communities. This donation announcement forms part of a commitment of $2 billion toward community investment by 2035. "Strengthening our communities is at the heart of everything we do. Today, the world is navigating challenging times and our role in giving back has never been more important," said Andrea Barrack, SVP, Sustainability & Impact, RBC. "Food security is a growing need and a critical foundation to a thriving community, and we need broader solutions that help meet the needs of today and tomorrow through food storage, supply and distribution solutions, community support and farming innovation." RBCers have a long history of supporting their communities, whether it's generously donating time, skills or other resources. To support RBC's commitment to help address food insecurity, RBC employees can also get involved through internal programs to match their donations and volunteer with local community partners focusing on food security. Organizations receiving the funding are in Canada, the US and the UK, and include: Ottawa Community Foundation, Food Banks Canada, Food Banks of Saskatchewan, Fresh Routes, Harvest Manitoba, World Central Kitchen, FareShare in the U.K., among others. "Canada is in the midst of a food security crisis, and addressing it requires community-level systemic change. Thanks to catalytic investment from RBC, in partnership with the Ottawa Community Foundation, we are launching long-term, sustainable, and resilient local food initiatives in communities across Canada. The initial project with the Ottawa Mission helps grow fresh greens year-round for their food programs while equipping individuals with hands-on farming training. Other Canadian communities are using this project as a template to replicate, fostering public-private-community collaboration to deliver impact and build more resilient communities," said Corey Ellis, Co-founder and CEO, Growcer. These single and multi-year community investments come at a time when charities and not-for-profit organizations need more support than ever. According to Feed Opportunity, 8.7 million Canadians experienced food insecurity in 2023, a 26 per cent increase from the previous year. The funding is also part of broader efforts at RBC to support inclusive opportunities for prosperity, including financial wellbeing and skill-building.

/R E P E A T -- National Lean Conference Comes to Winnipeg June 9-12 to Address Canada's Productivity Crisis and Supply Chain Resilience/
WINNIPEG, MB, May 20, 2025 /CNW/ - Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME) is proud to announce that its flagship Embracing Excellence Lean Conference will take place June 9–12, 2025, at the RBC Convention Centre in Winnipeg, bringing together, over the course of four days, nearly 1,000 industry leaders from across the country to confront Canada's most pressing manufacturing challenges: lagging productivity, supply chain instability, and global trade uncertainty. "Canada's productivity crisis is directly impacting our competitiveness," said Otto Kemerle, CME Manitoba Advisory Board Chair and President of the International Truck Body. "Through Lean, manufacturers can take control of what they can improve. Operations, processes, and people. It's a strategic response to volatility that doesn't rely on subsidies or major capital injections." This year's program will explore how Lean methodologies can be applied to increase productivity without major capital investment, build resilient and responsive supply chains, and help Canadian manufacturers remain agile in the face of global economic shifts. It will also emphasize the importance of people and culture in sustaining long-term performance focusing on leadership, team engagement, and frontline empowerment. "Manufacturers are being squeezed by rising costs and increasing trade uncertainty," said Todd Leroy, Vice President of Manufacturing at Loewen Windows. "To stay competitive, we need to do more with what we already have. Improving productivity through Lean isn't optional; it's essential. It allows us to adapt quickly without relying on external support or massive infrastructure overhauls." This national event will offer immersive learning, practical case studies, and in-depth conversations on Lean manufacturing as a strategy to enhance competitiveness, agility, and workforce engagement. By gathering national voices in Winnipeg, the conference highlights Manitoba's strategic manufacturing and logistics role and supports regional efforts to build stronger, smarter operations that can weather uncertainty. ABOUT CME Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters is Canada's oldest and largest national trade and industry association. In Manitoba, CME works with manufacturers to help them grow with support and resources in the areas of Leadership & Executive Support, Lean & Productivity, Advanced Manufacturing & Innovation, Trade & Business Development, Workforce Development, Advocacy & Intelligence, Future Workforce, Safety and Networking.
