MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

At Ilnu Excavation, our work is driven by more than construction—it is guided by responsibility, pride, and a long-term vision for our community.

As a company majority owned by members of the Ilnu First Nation and based in Mashteuiatsh, we carry a deep respect for the land and for the people who depend on the infrastructure we build. Every road, culvert, and network we construct must serve not only today’s needs, but also future generations.

Our mission is clear: to deliver reliable, safe, and high-quality civil works projects, while contributing to economic development, skills transfer, and employment opportunities for Indigenous and regional communities. We believe that technical excellence and cultural values go hand in hand. Discipline, integrity, and teamwork are at the heart of everything we do—on the job site and in our relationships with clients and partners.

Ilnu Excavation is committed to being a trusted partner, capable of meeting the highest standards of Québec’s construction industry while remaining grounded in the values that define us as Ilnu.

Together, we are building infrastructure that supports growth, resilience, and shared prosperity.

Franky Bouchard, ing.
