I am going to come back to your first question, on how we made sure the price paid for the location in Saint-Bernard‑de‑Lacolle was reasonable. The department has its own leasing and property management agents, who do an initial review of the file.
In this specific case, our clients had presented a unique need: to be all together near the border crossing. As you said, Mr. Guay owns a majority of the land, and he was certainly the only one prepared to support our clients in 2017, when this situation started. Our experts therefore negotiated a lease by mutual agreement, as in a majority of real estate lease cases across Canada.
