Mi'kma'ki-Municipal Limited Partnership | Spring 2025

Mi’kma’ki-Municipal Limited Partnership
The Mi’kma’ki-Municipal Limited Partnership (MMLP), a partnership between WMA and the Municipal Group of Companies, performs a wide range of civil construction services and takes a special interest in renewable energy projects. MMLP is involved in a number of exciting projects in 2025, including:

The new Wije’Winen Centre (Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre)

The other excavator with breaker is standing by to break bedrock for the new footings. The top-right corner of the first photo shows the engineered Soil Nails and Shotcrete Excavation Shoring system installed to support parts of Rainie Drive.

The new Wije’Winen Centre (Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre). MMLP has been contracted by Pomerleau Inc. to carry out building excavation, shoring and related services for the Centre, including the mass excavation and bedrock excavation for new foundations. MMLP was proud to subcontract some of this work to a Mi’kmaw-owned business, Gloade Construction & Excavation.

The Weavers Mountain Wind Farm project located near Antigonish. MMLP is the general contractor, overseeing the entire project. It is self-performing the civil construction work, which in 2025 includes roads and wind turbine foundations. Construction of the substation and turbine erection will take place in 2026. MMLP conducted several job fairs in 2025 for the Weavers Mountain and other projects to increase First Nation participation, including Potlotek, Sipekne’katik, the MEBO career fair in Truro, and the Green Pathways First Nation Career Fair at the Nova Scotia Community College.
