Robin Dubeau

I thank the member, Mr. Chair.

That is an excellent question.

We have a very large portfolio consisting of 2,500 assets. It is important to note that since 2021, we have had to comply with the Accessible Canada Act. We therefore did an assessment of our assets in relation to the new legislation. When apartment 12E at 550 Park Avenue was assessed, it did not meet the standards.

I will turn the floor over to Mr. Hounzangbé. He will be able to explain what it was that caused problems.
