Karen Ogen: The agreement between the Ksi Lisims project and a government-owned German energy utility shows reconciliation can bring real benefit

An Indigenous-led LNG project in northwest B.C. last week agreed to supply Germany with one million tonnes of liquefied natural gas a year for the next 20 years.
This was no small deal. The agreement between the Ksi Lisims project and government-owned German energy utility Securing Energy for Europe (SEFE) marks a significant step toward shoring up Germany’s energy security at a moment of profound European insecurity, with the war in Ukraine and rising tensions involving Iran unsettling global supply.
