Fortescue Ltd. withdrew its plan to build a $2 billion green hydrogen plant in Prince George .

The company expressed doubts about B.C. ’s clean energy policies and the availability of cheap renewable power.

The news must have come as a letdown to Premier David Eby , who several times expressed support for the project.

Richard McCandless was an unofficial watchdog on B.C. Hydro , ICBC and other public policy concerns.

He was just 73 and will be missed in every newsroom in the province.

The NDP platform barely mentions LNG , but the NDP platform doesn't fit Eby ’s wishful thinking.
