Attorney Serge Dubois, who acted in the media as a spokesman for Faubourg Mena’Sen’s former executives, says they formally responded to the formal notice sent to them last week. According to him, this is based on “unfounded” remarks.
In an email to Radio-Canada, he indicated that all measures related to the dissolution of the non-profit organization Faubourg Mena’Sen were approved by the unanimous resolution of its members and initiated following the receipt of the legal opinion of Me Paul Martel, recognized expert on the companies of law and NPObefore being approved by the Registraire des entreprises.
He also maintains that the welfare of employees and tenants is taken into account at the time of the sale.
The sale of Faubourg Mena’Sen was carried out following a call for tenders sent to owners of real estate portfolios. Of the offers submitted, administrators chose the best, he said. This choice was specifically motivated by a commitment to retain all employees of the complex and deploy actions to ensure the concerns and questions of Faubourg tenants are answered.
It also implies that although they have no obligation to do sothe directors agree that a percentage of net sales proceeds will be donated annually to organizations dedicated to housing assistance for the most disadvantaged. In his message, Me Dubois did not specify, however, the value of these donations or the names of the organizations that would benefit from them.
It will be recalled that former administrators have until May 17 to respond to the formal notice filed by attorney Louis Fortier, on behalf of a private plaintiff.
In a message to Radio-Canada sent on Monday, the Registraire des entreprises explained in what circumstances a non-profit organization may repeal the clause providing for the redistribution of its funds to an organization conducting similar mission in case it breaks down.
It will be recalled that in March, former Faubourg leaders requested that such a clause be canceled in the organization’s patent letters.
The clause providing for the redistribution of funds to an organization carrying out a similar mission, as reflected in the organization’s patent letters, is required only by the Registrar when the organization has raised funds by public subscription or any the other way around.
Consequently, from the moment the non-profit organization revokes the clause giving it the power to collect funds by public subscription or in any other way, it may revoke the clause providing for the redistribution of funds. in an organization that practices a similar way. mission in the event of exterminationsaid a spokesman for the Registrar.
