The NCC supports Indigenous communities that support Canadian Metallurgical Coal mining projects in BC and AB.

Help support the 16,400 Canadians working in this industry today!

The NCC sent a letter to the Alberta Coal Policy Committee expressing NCC support for metallurgical coal mining in Alberta. NCC believe this industry will provide our First Nation communities with long-term employment, training, business opportunities and community investment. NCC believe that coal operations developed in Alberta will protect our environment and our water. Join us in this support effort – send an email to the coal policy committee at energy.coalpolicy@gov.ab.ca telling them that you support Alberta’s Met Coal Mining Industry! Advise your contacts today to do the same.

The Mining Industry in Canada is coming back! Let’s ensure our First Nation people are involved!

Great article by our friend, Michael Binnion! The devastation of our economy has to be stopped!!

BINNION: Canada’s economic policy must be built on more than hope

Let’s keep the fight going for our oil and gas industry. Support the Canadian Energy Centre!

Canada, the world’s fourth largest producer of natural gas, could become an attractive supplier of liquified natural gas (LNG) to the region due to its competitive advantages, including lower shipping costs to Asian countries and reduced liquification costs due to Canada’s cooler climate.https://www.canadianenergycentre.ca/canadas-lng-opportunity-in-the-asia-pacific-natural-gas-market/embed/#?secret=HSEqlwwmT4

Natural gas is one of the world’s fastest growing energy sources, representing 23% of Global Energy Demand, according to the IEA;


In most years since 2000, average natural gas prices in Asia have been higher than in Canada, and since 2009 that gap has ranged between 122% and 775% more in Asia than Canada, depending on the year;


Western Canadian natural gas has a cost advantage over other LNG exporting countries like Qatar, Australia and the U.S. Gulf Coast as its lower temperatures help lower liquification costs;


Shipping costs to Japan from Canada are estimated at between 99 cents and $1.09 per million BTU compared to $1.50 and $1.54 per million BTU from Qatar, and between $2.40 and $2.45 from the U.S. Gulf of Mexico;


Canada’s West Coast is closer to Japan’s primary ports by thousands of kilometres compared to Qatar.
