Woodfibre LNG plans to triple capacity
April 2, 2026

Last week at a global energy conference in Houston, federal Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Tim Hodgson revealed:
“I know Woodfibre [LNG] has ambitions to double and triple the size of their production.”
My Sea to Sky has warned regulators and the public since 2015 that the capacity of the Eagle Mountain to Woodfibre pipeline and tunnel currently under construction by FortisBC could allow Woodfibre LNG to expand significantly.
This confirms our suspicions that Woodfibre LNG has overbuilt infrastructure to enable a phased expansion of the project while sidestepping the environmental assessment process.
Is Woodfibre LNG exploiting regulatory loopholes to sneak in a project up to three times bigger than initially assessed?
Triple the tankers. Triple the pollution. Triple the health & safety impacts.
Did the provincial and federal governments know this was the plan from day one?
Love where you live. Defend what you love.
This has raised the stakes.
Sunshine Coast Conservation Association and My Sea to Sky have launched several legal actions to stop Woodfibre LNG and FortisBC, and hold regulators to account.
We are demanding a new environmental assessment to evaluate Woodfibre LNG’s true cumulative impacts.
In the last month, 125 generous donors have raised an incredible $12,915. We still need to raise another $12,085 to meet our goal.
Can you chip in to help pay for legal fees, expert peer review, access to information, and dedicated staff time to support our legal actions?
