Prince George, B.C. – Skeena-Blukley Valley MP Nathan Cullen has lined up a number of public discussion sessions for November to talk about Liquefied Natural Gas.
“Across the Northwest, people are hearing about LNG, but as a new industry we don’t necessarily know all that much about it. Our goal is to bring those individual conversations under one roof, and bring people the best information possible” says Cullen.
The tour has been organized in coordination with Friends of Wild Salmon and will visit Smithers, Terrace, Kitimat and Prince Rupert.
Cullen plans to resume the tour in the new year with visits to areas in the eastern part of his riding.
“We’re experiencing a major transition in the Northwest” says Cullen, “It’s more important now than ever for people who live here to have their say in guiding how that economic development happens. We’re a resource economy and we want to ensure that resource development respects the values we hold as citizens of this place.”
The dates for the fall tour are as follows:
- Smithers – November 12 Della Herman Theatre, 7pm
- Terrace – November 13 REM Lee Theatre, 7pm
- Kitimat – November 14 Mount Elizabeth Theatre, 7pm
- Prince Rupert – November 15 Highliner Hotel, 7pm
