An editorial in the New Brunswick Telegraph-Journal argues that Canada’s federal officials are acting in Canadians’ interests by opposing LNG vessel traffic in the Head Harbour Passage and Passamaquoddy Bay. The piece states that New Brunswick and Canadian officials respect FERC’s jurisdiction over energy facilities in the United States, but notes that U.S. officials ought to respect Canadian authority over LNG vessels transiting through Canadian waters.
