TC Energy says Coastal GasLink (CGL) Phase 2 will proceed after LNG Canada and its joint venture participants reach a positive Final Investment Decision (FID). The company frames the move as enabling additional Canadian natural gas to supply growing global LNG demand.
Contextually, CGL is the natural gas pipeline system intended to transport gas to LNG Canada. In its announcement, TC Energy links the next phase of the pipeline to the LNG project’s investment commitment, indicating that pipeline capacity upgrades are aligned with expanded LNG production plans. The Financial Post and the Globe and Mail both report the decision outcome and that Phase 2 continues toward execution.
The outlets emphasize different aspects of the same development. The Globe and Mail focuses on the impact to pipeline capacity, saying Phase 2 nearly doubles capacity through new compressor stations and other upgrades. The Financial Post highlights the broader rationale—meeting expected LNG demand—and identifies LNG Canada’s positive FID as the trigger for proceeding.
