TC Energy completes Coastal GasLink investment deal with five First Nations

TC Energy completed a deal giving five First Nations an economic interest in Coastal GasLink.

The Haisla Nation, Halfway River First Nation, McLeod Lake Indian Band, Saulteau First Nations and West Moberly First Nations are involved.

Their interest is in the entity that holds TC Energy’s limited partner stake in the pipeline, and the deal’s financial terms were not disclosed.

Coastal GasLink is a 670-kilometre pipeline in British Columbia that supplies natural gas to the LNG Canada export terminal in Kitimat.

The deal is the first of two planned Indigenous investment transactions tied to the pipeline.

TC Energy expects the second transaction to close in the fourth quarter of 2026.

The company also plans to double the pipeline’s capacity with new compressor stations and facility upgrades, following LNG Canada’s decision to proceed with a Phase 2 expansion.
