Julien Laplante-Laberge has managed construction projects across Ontario and Quebec with contract values ranging from $22 million to almost $2 billion. In various capacities, he has contributed to several ventures recognized for their outstanding execution, including the Caribou Falls Block Dam 2 Reconstruction Project, the Turcot Interchange, and the Lower Mattagami River Project. While his own experience is long and broad, Julien is a big believer in helping junior colleagues and craft workers to develop by encouraging them to propose solutions to complex engineering problems and – as and when appropriate – implementing their suggestions. Julien embraces diversity and inclusiveness, supporting and sponsoring efforts to increase the number of women at Kiewit and within the industry as a whole. In addition, he has demonstrated a passion for using trainings and community sports events to help build and maintain healthy relationships with Indigenous communities.
