FCL pauses proposed Integrated Agriculture Complex projects

  • Federated Co-operatives Limited has paused its proposed renewable diesel facility and canola crushing projects due to regulatory and political uncertainty, escalating costs, and potential shifts in low-carbon public policy, as stated in their news release.
  • The proposed projects were expected to create over 2,500 construction jobs and 150 permanent operating jobs, but neither had begun construction before the pause.
  • FCL's CEO Heather Ryan mentioned that the original cost of the $2-billion project has more than doubled, influencing the decision to halt the projects.
  • AGT Foods CEO Murad Al-Katib expressed optimism that Canadian canola can still be used for renewable fuels in the future despite the current pause on the projects.
