Louise Millette, Director of Polytechnique Montréal's Départment of Civil, Geological and Mining Engineering, has been appointed to the new Board of Directors of Ressources Québec.

On April 18, the Government of Québec announced the creation of Ressources Québec, a subsidiary of Investissement Québec specializing in mines and hydrocarbons. Given its major funding, Ressources Québec will be able to make strategic investments, stimulate economic growth and help Québec residents enjoy the benefits of the Plan Nord and of the development of resources. 

Ms. Millette was appointed, along with three other women and four men, because of her knowledge in the realms of science and natural resources.

“I would like to thank the members of the new Ressources Québec Board of Directors for agreeing to tackle the challenges of the future, in order to make sure that all Québec residents can directly benefit from the wealth being developed on their land,” said Mr. Bazin.

The Ressources Québec Board of Directors will be chaired by Jacques Daoust, President and Chief Executive Officer of Investissement Québec.


Ressources Québec will provide financial and assistance solutions to businesses that wish to develop major, structure-enhancing and profitable projects in Québec, including exploration, transformation and development of resources.

Our heartiest congratulations to Ms. Millette. We wish her the best of luck in her new functions.
