The Tahltan First Nation has played a key role in the success of the projects and will work closely with AltaGas to provide clean energy to British Columbia for decades to come.

Members from the Tahltan First Nation, Chad Day, President Tahltan Central Council and government officials Bill Bennett, Minister of Energy and Mines, John Rustad, Minister of Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation, Les MacLaren, Assistant Deputy Minister, Electricity and Alternative Energy Division, Ministry of Energy and Mines joined David Cornhill, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, members of AltaGas’ Board of Directors and AltaGas staff to officially open the facilities.
