Oui! Mais il me semble que les grues sont excessivement hautes!?

 

Il faut peut-être assez de hauteur pour permettre aux grutiers de bien faire leur travail sans craindre tous types de contraintes visuelles ?

Thomson Reuters awarded its 2010 PFI Award for PPP Deal of the Year (Americas) to the

McGill University Health Centre (MUHC), Groupe immobilier santé McGill and Infrastructure Québec for the financing of the

new MUHC Glen Campusproject. The prize was awarded at the PFI Awards Dinner held on January 26 in London, UK. The PFI

Awards are the ultimate recognition of achievement in global project financing.

 

The combination bank/bond financing for the new McGill University Health Centre in Montréal expanded the universe of PPP

investors to fund the largest greenfield hospital project in Canada despite the challenge of a lengthy 51-month

construction period.

 

The financial advisors for Groupe immobilier santé McGill, SNC-Lavalin Capital and Investec North America Limited, chose

Scotiabank, Dexia, BNP Paribas, CIBC, Crédit Agricole, RBS, and SMBC to handle the bank portion and Scotia Capital,

Casgrain and Dexia to underwrite the bond issue.

 

The financing program received great investor demand for the bond portion. The amortising bonds, which mature in 2044, were

priced to yield 290 GBX over the benchmark. The bank loan portion of the financing was priced at 225 GBX over Libor. The

bond issue raised 764 million from more than 50 investors.

 

A consortium led by SNC-Lavalin with its partner Innisfree will develop the 300,000m2, 500-bed facility under a DBFM

contract comprising a 30-year operating period.

 

"Rare are the opportunities to create a physical environment that will encourage the transformation of health care for

generations, but the McGill University Health Centre's Glen Campus is one of them," noted the Hon. Arthur T. Porter, MUHC

Director General and CEO. "It takes vision to invest in it, to innovate with its potential in mind and to bring personal

ideas to bear not only on what that environment could look like but also how people could make it thrive. The Thomson

Reuters award for our PPP transaction is yet another testament that this vision and my objectives for our organization are

coming to life."

 

"The award is in recognition of the innovative financing put in place by Groupe immobilier santé McGill, composed of

SNC-Lavalin and Innisfree, as part of the overall project mandate. The novel aspect of this financing is the massive

contribution from the bond portion in combination with the bank portion," added Gilles Laramée, Executive Vice-President

and Chief Financial Officer, SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. "The award also confirms SNC-Lavalin's and its partners' ability to

structure financing that is adapted to market conditions."

 

"The Glen Campus PPP construction venture is one of the largest hospital infrastructure projects in the world. This award

confirms that meticulous management and planning leads to excellence. Completing this project gives the Montréal area just

the kind of economic boost it needs and will help provide our citizens with world-class health care at the cutting edge of

technology. We look forward to the opening of the McGill University Health Care Glen Campus with excitement and pride,"

adds Michelle Courchesne, Minister responsible for Government Administration, Chair of the Conseil du trésor and Minister

responsible for Infrastructure Québec.

Oh man the closure of St Jacques exit is terrible! My 25 minute drive turned into 2 hours, my clutch toes are sore and I don't even use it!

 

I was there though yesterday evening before it closed and I didn't understand why so many small accesses to Decarie and such were closed up, it looked like something done to take traffic "out of the neighborhood" while there is construction traffic (?)

 

And driving down de la Verendrye, in LaSalle, the 70 km/h speed limit signs have been completely removed and replaced with "MAXIMUM 50". Fucking municipal merger a marrde!!!! The road was slippery as hell with snow and slush, everyone is driving 70 - 80 anyway. in Toronto or Calgary or anywhere else you would see an 80 sign on that road...

Yeah! I was driving home from downtown on Friday along the Ville-Marie westbound, and wow it is quite a sight from around past the Fort entrance when you get out of the tunnel all the cranes, because of the curve in the road you see cranes to the right, cranes to the left, cranes right in front of you. It makes you think you are in some kind of big growing city or maybe, 1967 :D It is worth a picture but I don't feel like playing with cameras at 105 km/h.
