So far as I know they have not announced any plans to set up lounges of their own, but will continue to partner with Servisair, Plaza Premium and Swiss.
Unfortunately, none of these have a domestic lounge at YUL. The only one is in International departures.
By the way, welcome to FT :-)

Plaza Premium at YWG
Question:
Can I get into the Plaza Premier lounge at YWG with my West Jet Gold coupon? YWG is conspicuously absent from the list of participating Plaza Premium Lounges on the WS site.
Thanks

It's just been opened! The grand opening celebration isn't for another few weeks. We're actually in the middle of renovating the whole lounges page on our website, so aren't updating the site just now - but you can certainly go ahead and use the new Winnipeg lounge now. Be sure to post a review!
Cheers,

You have to get the airport authority onside. There is a long story (drama not comedy) about YOW efforts to try and run their own lounge. AC had to wait until phase 2 before the MLL was allowed in the new terminal. IIRC the place where the contract lounge was to have been located is now a retail area.

I believe YOW wants a connecting stop with stage two of the LRT, and they are willing for pitch in big dollars as well.
