Is or will this company receive any subsidies from the Canadian or B.C. governments? If so how much?

Hi David,

Thank you for your questions.

In terms of taxes, Woodfibre LNG will be responsible for paying a variety of taxes including: property tax, GST, PST, carbon tax, LNG tax, motor fuel fees and more. If you’d like a more detailed breakdown of these taxes, please see Section 2.6 of our Application for an Environmental Assessment Certificate here.
