MOOSONEE – Pomerleau Healthcare Partners (PHP) has been awarded a $1.8 billion contract to design, build and finance a hospital campus in Moosonee.

Construction is expected to be completed in 2030.

The consortium was selected by the Weeneebayko Area Health Authority (WAHA)  and Infrastructure Ontario (IO) for the project on Moose Factory Island and along Ontario’s James Bay Coast. This project is being delivered using a progressive Public-Private Partnership (P3) Design Build Finance (DBF) model.

“We are honored to be selected to bring much needed and improved healthcare facilities for WAHA and all the communities it serves along the James Bay and Hudson Bay coasts,” said Philippe Adam, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We bring decades of experience in delivering complex and revitalizing healthcare projects. We look forward to working together with WAHA, Infrastructure Ontario, and the local Indigenous communities to deliver another successful project.”

The project includes an acute care hospital, a larger 24-hour emergency department, a new 32-bed Elder Care Lodge, modern state-of-the-art suites, expanded mental health and addictions programming, residences for staff, and a hostel for patients and visitors.

“On behalf of everyone at Infrastructure Ontario, I’d like to congratulate WAHA, Pomerleau Healthcare Partners and the provincial and federal governments on this truly one-of-a-kind project that will transform healthcare in the north,” said Michael Lindsay, president and CEO of Infrastructure Ontario. “This milestone for the WAHA Redevelopment Project marks the close of procurement for our first progressive P3 DBF project – and the first to complete the development phase.

“As the next phase of construction kicks off, we’re committed to working with communities and stakeholders to get critical healthcare infrastructure like this project built.”

The Pomerleau Healthcare Partners (PHP) team is comprised of:

“We are all committed to creating the most state-of-the-art regional healthcare campus possible and we’re excited to reach this milestone in our redevelopment project,” said Lynne Innes, President and CEO of Weeneebayko Area Health Authority. “Our entire organization is eager to begin the next phase of construction which will drive us forward in ensuring the health and well-being of people in our region.”
