Keyera doubles natural gas volumes to be shipped via AltaGas terminal in B.C.
CALGARY – Keyera Corp. has reached an agreement to double the volume of liquefied petroleum gas it plans to export through a West Coast export facility being built by AltaGas Ltd. AltaGas said in February that Keyera had contracted 12,500 barrels per day of capacity to ship the gas to Asia via the Ridley Island Energy Export Facility near Prince Rupert, B.C. The companies announced Monday that will rise to 25,000 barrels per day under 15-year tolling agreements. The facility is to be used to export propane and butane in its first phase, with the possibility of expanding into ethane and other valuable liquids in the future. It's being built next to a propane export facility AltaGas already operates on Ridley Island. AltaGas says the uncertain trade environment has underscored the need for Canadian companies to diversify their export markets beyond the United States. 'AltaGas provides its customers the opportunity for protection against tariff and counter-tariff impacts and ensures access to the highest priced global markets,' it said. '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.'

Canadians want feds to cut spending, new poll suggests
'The poll shows Canadians want Carney to reverse course and put an end to Ottawa's runaway spending," said CTF's Franco Terrazzano Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney speaks to the media after meeting with his cabinet to deal with the US auto tariffs on March 27, 2025 on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. The era of deep economic, security and military ties between Canada and the United States "is over," Prime Minister Mark Carney said, a day after US President Donald Trump announced steep auto tariffs.

Create Account That's what Canadians prefer when it comes to government spending, says a new Leger poll commissioned by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. 'Prime Minister Mark Carney told Canadians he would rein in spending, but spending is ballooning again this year,' said the federation's federal director Franco Terrazzano. 'The poll shows Canadians want Carney to reverse course and put an end to Ottawa's runaway spending.' Fifty-four per cent of those with a decision say they want the federal government to cut spending, which has grown 26% between 2019 and 2024, even with inflation taken into account. Twenty-four per cent of those with an opinion say they'd like to see spending increased. Read More This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. While Prime Minister Mark Carney said his government won't release a budget until the fall — a walkback from previous assertions they wouldn't release one at all this year — the federal government's main estimates released last month outlined a $487 billion spending plan, 8.4% higher than last year's estimates. As well, Monday saw the PM announce a big boost to Canada's defence spending with plans to, for the first time in our history, meet NATO's 2%-of-GDP defence spending minimums. The poll was conducted May 30 to June 1 of 1,519 Canadian adults via Leger's online panel. As margins-of-error cannot be applied to online polls, a comparable probably sample would yield ±2.5%, 19 times out of 20. bpassifiume@ X: @bryanpassifiume RECOMMENDED VIDEO Olympics Canada Ontario Sunshine Girls Columnists

EVs aren't being forced on Canadians — if anything, they're being withheld from them
By Rachel Doran and Joanna Kyriazias Contributors Rachel Doran is the executive director and Joanna Kyriazis is the director of public affairs at Clean Energy Canada, a think tank at Simon Fraser University's Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue. You may have heard this one before: governments are 'forcing' people to buy electric vehicles. It's how U.S. President Donald Trump described the efforts of his predecessor and some in Canada have similarly accused the feds and certain provinces of pushing their green agenda on uninterested drivers. For the record, drivers are not uninterested. A new survey from Abacus Data commissioned by Clean Energy Canada finds that 45 per cent of Canadians are inclined to get an EV as their next vehicle and that share is considerably higher in urban areas (55 per cent in the GTHA and a whopping 69 per cent in Metro Vancouver) and among younger Canadians (57 per cent of those under 30).
