This ship would sail...Now let me get this straight. This ship would sail into harbour just like any other grain ship, ore carrier or whatever. It doesn't need Kitimat or Prince Rupert - just a place to tether and a gas outlet. So it could be ten or twenty kilometers from anywhere and the 80 to 100 workers required to operate it could be transferred by bullet bus/taxi to and from the site.<br />The gas line could be located anywhere out of fisheries concerns, FN interests and populated areas. Just like a grain carrier, except its not moored in Burrard Inlet.<br />Sounds like a winner!<br />Oh, what's in it for BC? Jobs? 80 to 100, unless they go to TFWs. Royalties? Not so much now that Chrispy has hammered out a deal.<br />Perhaps a little tourism - grab a BC Ferry and come watch a boat get loaded. So much for our Prosperity Fund!John's Aghastnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-62958235877959128792015-05-24T07:57:45.600-07:002015-05-24T07:57:45.600-07:00As you've so ably noted on many occasions, the...As you've so ably noted on many occasions, the economics of LNG in BC make no sense, and there is even less of an ecological and social case. The scheme is all about creating value for cronies and their camp followers. In fact, LNG is just wrong and wrong squared, which is precisely it is such a good fit for Clark & Co.

A portable gasification plant makes good sense (for the buyer) and makes even less sense for BC to get involved in the game. <br /><br />It sounds an awful lot like raw log exports...G.

And it's crying shame that you're not a leading part of the official circle of policy makers in this province--then again, maybe you are... <br /><br />More than that, though, i wholly support the following sentiments: "Imagine pipelines zigzagging our northeast, roads and drill pads everywhere, ten`s of thousands of drillpads and connecting pipes, all that wasted/spoiled water, caribou, wolves and all the other species will literally become extinct, you can`t remove the animals migratory paths and expect them to survive...and for almost no money..<br /><br />"It`s also my belief that this technology will put to rest all the LNG bluster and hype from the BC Liberals, we won`t get 3 LNG plants, or 5..or 19....With luck we don`t get any, time for British Columbia to become a 21st century modern land, not just raw resource exporters, wasters of water and wildlife killers ...British Columbia`s greatest asset is sustainable forestry and super natural pristine land full of birds and unique species, along with clean water laden with wild salmon and ocean delicacies...<br /><br />That is what will have real value in the decades, and hopefully centuries to come..."<br /><br />Bravo.<br /><br />Thanks for standing up and telling it like it is and ought to be.Jon Ghunnoreply@blogger.com
