NDP candidates push for stronger climate action as Singh supports LNG Canada

Feb 20, 2019

UBC academics were quoted in a Canadian Press story on NDP leader Jagmeet Singh’s stance on climate change and support for LNG Canada.

Simon Donner, a geography professor and climate change expert, said LNG Canada would operate for decades and make it harder for the country to meet longer-term targets.

Political science professor Richard Johnston said Singh likely wants to align himself with B.C.’s NDP government.

Stories appeared on CTV, National Post, Regina Leader Post and other outlets.
