“My strongest professional quality is my ability to build trust and long-term relationships, whether with clients, colleagues, or stakeholders”

Eric Laberge is steering Medavie Blue Cross into the future with a clear vision and steady hand. He leads Canada’s fourth-largest life and health insurer and the only fully integrated health, drug and disability carrier, overseeing $7.8 billion in claims and connecting 3.5 million Canadians to care.
During his 10-year tenure as president, the company has expanded across all business lines, achieving revenue growth of 106 percent and income growth of 95 percent. While Medavie consistently exceeds financial targets, as a not-for-profit, its success goes far beyond the bottom line – reinvesting in innovation, employees, and communities.
Laberge is advancing a digital-first, customer-focused transformation, combining top-tier products with seamless, inclusive experiences. His leadership style is open and collaborative. He makes time for conversations with employees, inspiring teams to deliver on Medavie’s mission of improving the well-being of Canadians.
That people-first approach has earned Medavie national recognition as one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers, one of Canada’s Most Admired Corporate Cultures, and a two-time Insurance Business Canada Life and Health Insurer of the Year.
Based in Montreal, Laberge brings Medavie’s values to life outside the office, serving on the board of the Dr. Clown Foundation and riding in the Medavie-sponsored MS Bike. A Fellow of both the Society of Actuaries and the Canadian Institute of Actuaries, he is both a strategist and a community champion.
