It certainly wouldn't be a frequent experience nor totally isolated. From the evidence contained in the minutes of previous meetings, it appears that the biggest single difference in the plans for CEDQ was whether or not the regional office in Montreal would be consolidated with the headquarters office. If that were to happen, a bigger space would be required.
At one point--as I understand from the record--the plan was that consolidation would bring in those extra people. Then the plan changed and the decision was taken to have the regional office in the east end of Montreal, where it was perhaps closer to the clientele it would serve in the public of Quebec.
