We’re renovating!

In the coming months, the complex Portage III will be temporarily vacated for extensive renovations. Employees will be moved to temporary office space locations in downtown Ottawa. The next set of moves will begin in fall 2018 to L'Esplanade Laurier at 140 O’Connor Street. As each phase of the project nears completion, employees will be moved back to the newly renovated Portage III complex.

The modernized campus will feature the latest in greening solutions and will integrate a broad spectrum of design elements intended to improve employee wellness, and reflect a more modern way of working.
