Located on Canada's west coast, the LNG Canada facility benefits from access to abundant, low-cost natural gas and an ice-free harbor. The plant is the first-of-its-kind in Canada with an annual production capacity of up to 14 million tonnes of LNG. It positions Canada as a major supplier of low-carbon natural gas to global markets and will operate under a 40-year license helping to reduce global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by replacing coal with natural gas. A Phase 2 expansion would increase the facility's processing, storage and shipping capabilities. LNG Canada and its five joint venture participants continue to explore pathways to a Phase 2 expansion but have not yet reached a final investment decision.

'We've been a proud partner of LNG Canada through Phase 1 and we look forward to contributing to the next chapter in the construction of this world-class facility,' said Mike Alexander, Fluor's Business Group President of Energy Solutions. 'We commend the LNG Canada team for its foresight and commitment to the energy transition by providing natural gas, a lower-carbon energy alternative, to global markets.'

LNG Canada is a joint venture between Shell, Petronas, PetroChina, Mitsubishi Corporation, and KOGAS.

If You'd Invested $1,000 in TD 5 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Today
Key Points Toronto-Dominion's dividends made a significant contribution to the stock's total return. It's important to compare returns to indexes. 10 stocks we like better than Toronto-Dominion Bank › Toronto-Dominion Bank (NYSE: TD) is the parent company of TD Bank, one of North America's largest banks. Its businesses include a Canadian personal and commercial banking unit, U.S. retail banking, wealth management and insurance in Canada, and wholesale banking that serves institutional clients (e.g., corporate and investment banking). Taking a look back, how would you have fared if you'd invested $1,000 in the stock five years ago? Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » Total return and investment sum Toronto-Dominion Bank's stock gained 63.8% over the last five years through Aug. 1. However, that doesn't include dividends. When factoring in those payouts, the stock had a total return of 103%. That means your $1,000 investment would have more than doubled in five years. Applying the 103% return to your initial $1,000 investment equals $2,030. This sounds impressive. After all, who wouldn't want to double their money in five years? You can grow your wealth pretty quickly at that rate. But it's important to put that return in context. Comparison One way to do that is by comparing the stock's return to a broad index and a bank stock index. That's the return you could have gotten if you'd invested passively over those five years. The S&P 500 index produced a total return of 105.6%, and the S&P 500 Banks index returned an even better 149.8%. Both bested Toronto-Dominion Bank's return. If you'd invested the $1,000 in the S&P 500, you'd have $2,056 today. Before fees, an exchange-traded fund or mutual fund investing in the bank index would have grown your investment to $2,498. Of course, past returns provide no guarantee about future results. However, it's a useful exercise to see how a stock investment would have fared in the context of the broader market and sector. In this case, Toronto-Dominion Bank's stock didn't perform as well. Should you invest $1,000 in Toronto-Dominion Bank right now? Before you buy stock in Toronto-Dominion Bank, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Toronto-Dominion Bank wasn't one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years. Consider when Netflix made this list on December 17, 2004... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $624,823!* Or when Nvidia made this list on April 15, 2005... if you invested $1,000 at the time of our recommendation, you'd have $1,064,820!* Now, it's worth noting Stock Advisor's total average return is 1,019% — a market-crushing outperformance compared to 178% for the S&P 500.
