Michels Canada has expanded its commitment to supporting Canada’s prosperous future by adding electrical power construction services to its energy and infrastructure offerings.
Michels Canada’s decisions and actions are based on the company’s core values, starting with an absolute commitment to safety.

Michels Canada has established regional bases and teams at its facilities in the Vancouver, Edmonton and Toronto areas to meet the unique needs and conditions of Canada’s regions.

Related services, such as foundations for structures and substations, are also available.
“This expansion is an organic progression of our goal of providing Canada with the safest, most-reliable energy and infrastructure construction services,” said Dean Cowling, President, Michels Canada. “We approach each project with our unwavering commitment to safety, innovation and quality, regardless of whether we have worked with a customer many times, or this is our first time working together. Our responsibility extends beyond our project sites to the communities and people who trust us to perform our critical services.”
As a member of the Michels Family of Companies, Michels Canada has access to the expertise, technical skills, specialized equipment, and situational solutions developed by one of the North America’s largest and most respected energy and infrastructure contractors.
