Vincent — host of Cap d'Acier

Vincent,
your host.

After more than 14 years in construction, on job sites as much as in offices, I came to a clear conviction:

This industry needs more dialogue, more understanding and more alignment between the people who make it run.

Everyone lives a different reality, the issues are complex, and they deserve to be explained and shared far better than they are.

My work is to help the industry evolve by creating conversations that are actually useful and by putting the right perspectives forward.

We are looking for people in the field who want to get involved and be part of this movement.

The future of construction in Quebec

Jean Boulet — Minister of Labour

The Minister of Labour on the labour force, access to the trades, mobility, training, productivity and health and safety: what has changed and what challenges remain.

This industry
must change !

Construction in Quebec is held back by red tape, a heavy political climate, and players each pulling in their own direction to prove their worth. On the ground, a culture rooted in old ways of working slows things further, while the labour shortage keeps raising the pressure. At the same time, digital tools and artificial intelligence are opening real possibilities. It is time for the sector to evolve — in how it works and in how it sees itself.
