Collaborative investment in methane leak mitigation
We urge both the public and private sectors to work together to significantly increase investments in methane leak mitigation. Public funds should be strategically allocated to prioritize projects that reduce contracting-out across the industry, ensuring that these investments create good jobs and improve safety standards.
Upgrading and expanding midstream investments
Canada must invest in upgrading and expanding midstream infrastructure for the safe and sustainable production of chemicals using natural gas. This includes supporting the implementation of the newest and most advanced emission mitigation technologies in the production of intermediaries, hydrogen, ammonia, and plastic products derived from the gas industry.
Advanced research and industrial partnerships
We advocate for the implementation of cutting-edge research, in partnership with our industrial research councils, to advance Canada’s vision for a secure and sustainable supply chain. This will create good jobs in our chemical and plastics industries while effectively addressing the challenges presented by global climate change obligations.
