The Construction Source

All the best, The Editorial Team We will keep adding business units that enhance our offering and separate us from our competition. “ ” Editor From The Dear Reader, Welcome to the latest issue of Construction Source Canada, the magazine that highlights the best in building and building products across the country. With this edition, we start the chapter on 2024 – on what’s sure to be a year of innovation, as the construction industry continues to face an array of challenges, and continues to play their part in addressing the nationwide housing shortage. Solico Construction is a prime example of a company that’s up to the challenge. They are a building and development company based in Gatineau, Quebec, founded with the vision to be the recognized leader in new construction in the Greater National Capital Region. Since forming over a decade ago, they have delivered a long list of high-quality properties to the region, including condominiums, townhouses, multi-family dwellings, duplexes, semi-detached homes, and single family homes. No matter the size or scope of the property, however, all their projects are unique, and Solico sets out to design and build them to the highest possible standards. For more on those standards, we spoke to Jonathan Goulet, the company’s founder and president. Jonathon also talked to us about Solico’s ongoing growth in Ontario, and their ongoing efforts to help raise standards for innovation and sustainability in both provinces. Another company rising to the challenge is Turner Construction – a well-known international construction services company with myriad offices in North America and beyond. Wherever Turner operates, they are known for undertaking large and complex projects, fostering innovative new technologies and making a difference for all project stakeholders, including clients, employees and communities. For this edition, we focused on their operations in Vancouver, and we spoke to Michael Fulop, Senior Project Manager. We specifically discussed the company’s exemplary work on Trulioo’s office at the M2 Building, for which Turner received a Gold Award at the 2023 Vancouver Regional Construction Association Awards of Excellence. Also featured in this issue is Lion One Metals, a Canadian resource company that recently completed construction on their own gold mine in Tuvatu, Fiji. To tell their story, we caught up with Patrick Hickey, a veteran mine builder as well as Lion One’s chief operating officer. We also spoke to Ronan Geoghegan, the company’s corporate development manager. We talked about Lion One’s history in Fiji, how they were able to complete construction of the Tuvatu mine ahead of schedule, and the exciting status of their operations there today. For those stories and many more like them – about builders, developers, and innovators from all over Canada and beyond – just keep reading.
