Whereas, by a notarial deed executed on 23 May 1980 and registered at the same registry office under number 239490, the Institution Monseigneur Guay transferred to La Congrégation des Soeurs de Notre-Dame du Bon Conseil de Chicoutimi the immovable described in Schedule G ; Whereas the deeds registered under numbers 205313 and 239490 state that the transfer is made for \"good and valuable considerations\" (Translation) but do not specify the nature of such considerations; Whereas the immovable described in paragraph 2 of Schedule F formed part of the immovable described in paragraph 6 of the description of the immovables transferred by the deed registered under number 39839 and it is not certain, in view of the clause contained in that deed and reproduced in Schedule B, that the Institution Monseigneur Guay had the right to transfer such immovable ; Whereas the Institution Monseigneur Guay no longer has a reason for existence, no longer owns immovable property and has no other movable property than the sums of money which Archbishop Vachon or the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Québec could pay to it for the administration and preservation of its property for the period extending from 9 March 1987 to 18 October 1988; Whereas the members of the Institution Monseigneur Guay are also members of La Congrégation des Soeurs de Notre-Dame du Bon Conseil de Chicoutimi and there would therefore be no inconvenience to the sums of money being paid to the congregation rather than to the Institution Monseigneur Guay ;

Whereas Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin died respectively on 17 October 1918 and 21 December 1924, and whereas their wills and the codicil to the will of Charles Jodoin were registered at the registry office of the registration division of Chambly, at Longueuil, under numbers 55 985, 65 648 and 65 649 respectively; Whereas Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin married in 1861 under the regime of community of movables and conquests prescribed by the Coutume de Paris, and whereas the immovable, acquired with a larger area by Charles Jodoin in 1900, formed part of the community ; Whereas the wills of Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin were composed in almost identical terms, whereas they instituted as residual legatees the six children born of their marriage, granting usufruct of the property so bequeathed to the surviving spouse and 3618 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUÉBEC, August 16, 1989, Vol.121.No.34 Part subjecting the legacy of the children or their representatives to the condition that they did not seek to profit from a substitution supposedly made by Félix Beauchamp, the father of Sophranie Beauchamp; Whereas, in his codicil, Charles Jodoin expressed the wish that one of the children of the couple should have the usufruct of an immovable described in the codicil which included the immovable contemplated by this Act, and whereas he subjected the rights of the other children or their representatives to a share of the residual legacy to the condition that they respect the codicil; Whereas the wills of Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin included a clause with respect to execution, whereas the executors appointed were the surviving spouse or, in the absence of a surviving spouse, Tancrède Jodoin, one ofthe children of the marriage, whereas the clause with respect to execution prescribed that the two executors should keep their executory powers beyond the year and a day fixed by law and for as long as the business of the succession so required, whereas it did not explicitly provide for the replacement of Tancrède Jodoin nor for the continuation of execution of the will independently of thé legatees after his death, and whereas Tancrède Jodoin died on 10 September 1951 ;

Whereas, on 29 October 1987, Yves Jodoin, one of the descendants of Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin, filed a petition in the Superior Court requesting that Raoul Jodoin, another descendant of the same two persons, and himself be appointed executors of the successions of Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin; Part 2 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUEBEC, August 16.1989.Vol.121.No.34 3619 Whereas, in the petition, Yves Jodoin put forward, in particular, that because ofthe difficulties of partitioning the succession, it would be convenient that such partition should concern a sum of money rather than an immovable, and whereas he requested in consequence that Raoul Jodoin and himself be authorized to sell, before a notary indicated in the petition, the immovable of the succession, part of lot 27 of the cadastre for the village of Boucherville, described in more detail in the petition; Whereas, in the petition, Yves Jodoin also put forward that, following the expropriation of part of the immovable bequeathed by Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin and given the relatively high price paid by the expropriator, the valuation of the remainder and, consequently, the property taxes were going to increase considerably, that the succession ran the risk of no longer being able to pay the taxes and, consequently, ran the risk of losing the immovable by sale to pay such taxes; Whereas, with the authorization of the court, notice of the petition was served through the newspapers, whereas nobody opposed it, whereas it was granted on 16 November 1987 (record number 500-14-000 562-886 of the Superior Court for the district of Montréal) and whereas after verification of the value ofthe immovable contemplated by the petition, the court fixed a sale price of $750 000 ; Whereas, under the authority of the judgment, Yves Jodoin and Raoul Jodoin, declaring themselves to be acting in the capacity of testamentary executors of the successions of Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin, sold before the notary indicated in the judgment the part of lot 27 of the cadastre for the village of Boucherville described in the judgment and contemplated by this Act, and whereas the sale price, paid in cash, was $850 000; Whereas there is a minor child among the persons concerned by the successions of Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin, whereas this fact is not mentioned in the petition, but whereas the petitioner does not declare either that all the persons concerned are of age; Whereas the Civil Code and the Code of Civil Procedure prescribe various formalities for sale by licitation of property and, in particular, of immovables of a succession when a minor child is concerned, whereas the petitioner had not asked the court to order the formalities to be carried out, whereas the court did not make such an order and whereas several of the formalities have not been carried out; 3620 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUÉBEC.August 16.1989.Vol.121.No.34 Part 2 Whereas, among the formalities prescribed for the sale by licitation of immovables of a succession when a minor child is concerned, is the prior notice published in a newspaper in accordance with article 594 of the Code of Civil Procedure ; Whereas, however, a notice of putting up for sale was placed on the land in question and, following such publicity, eleven offers to purchase were submitted to the notary in charge of the sale ; Whereas the minor child concerned by the successions of Charles Jodoin and Sophranie Beauchamp will reach his majority on 21 July 1989;

(2) the wills of Sophranie Beauchamp and Charles Jodoin did not give the executors the seizin of the immovables or, moreover, the power to alienate them ; (3) it is not certain that, when it rendered judgment on the business bearing number 500-14-000 568-868 in records of the Part 2 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUÉBEC, August 16.1989.Vol.121.No.34 3621 Superior Court of the district of Montréal, the court had the power to authorize the executors to sell an immovable belonging to the successions in question;

Whereas, on 1 October 1971, the Communauté urbaine de Québec effected the cadastral subdivision of parts of certain immovables which were the subject of the expropriation proceedings, for street purposes, and whereas the subdivision was made in accordance with the provisions of article 2175 of the Civil Code; Whereas, on 18 February 1972, the Communauté urbaine de Québec cancelled the parts of the lots in the process of being expropriated that were situated between the streets previously subdivided, and new original lots bearing numbers 544 to 556 were included in the plan and book of reference of the cadastre for the parish of Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures, and whereas this cadastral operation was carried out in accordance with the provisions of article 2174a ofthe Civil Code; Whereas, following the above-mentioned cadastral operations, but before the acquisition by the Communauté urbaine de Québec of the immovables in respect of which it had commenced expropriation proceedings, other minor cadastral amendments were made in accordance with the provisions of article 2175 of the Civil Code; Whereas, during the period extending from 31 May 1972 to 20 December 1973, the Communauté urbaine de Québec became the 3654 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUÉBEC.August 16.1989.Vol.121.No.34 Part owner of the immovables forming the territory of its industrial park by virtue of the deeds of sale entered into by the expropriated owners ; Whereas the immovables acquired by the Communauté urbaine de Québec by virtue of the deeds of sale hereinabove referred to were described in those deeds in the same manner as in the notices of expropriation registered on 17 May 1971 at the registry office ofthe registration division of Portneuf, at Cap-Santé, and, therefore, without taking into account the cadastral operations carried out after that date ; Whereas the deeds of sale hereinabove referred to were registered, at the time of their execution, at the registry office ofthe registration division of Portneuf, but whereas neither the lots included by reason of the above-mentioned cadastral operations nor the new subdivision lots resulting from such operations could be affected by such registration; Whereas certain successors in title of the Communauté urbaine de Québec to the immovables so acquired indicated to the Communauté urbaine de Québec that the designation of the immovables acquired by virtue of the deeds of sale hereinabove referred to was irregular since earlier cadastral operations had not been taken into account, and demanded that it make the necessary corrections ; Whereas corrections to the designation of certain immovables so acquired by the Communauté urbaine de Québec were made by way of agreements entered into by the Communauté urbaine de Québec and its predecessors in title to take into account the above-mentioned cadastral operations ; Whereas, by way of notarial memorials executed on 22 March 1989 and registered on 28 March 1989 at the registry office of the registration division of Portneuf under numbers 319777, 319778, 319779, 319780, 319781, 319782, 319783, 319784, 319785, 319786, 319787, 319788, 319789 and 319790, and by way of notarial memorials executed on 19 April 1989 and registered on 24 April 1989 at the same registry office under numbers 320434, 320435, 320436,320437, 320438 and 320439, the Communauté urbaine de Québec registered its titles of conveyance with respect to the immovables acquired during the period extending from 31 May 1972 to 20 December 1973, the designation of which had not been corrected by agreement ; Whereas the said notarial memorials, as prescribed in the last paragraph of article 2139 of the Civil Code, contained the official Part 2 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUÉBEC.August 16.1989.Vol.121.No.34 3655 designation of the immovables acquired by the Communauté urbaine de Québec as it stood at the time of their acquisition, although that designation did not appear in the deeds of sale ; Whereas the notarial memorials, to be equivalent to cadastral notices, also mentioned the cadastral operations carried out with regard to certain immovables following their acquisition by the Communauté urbaine de Québec ; Whereas certain of the notarial memorials were the subject of rectifications certified by a notarial deed executed on 6 June 1989 and registered the next day at the registry office of the registration division of Portneuf under number 321696; Whereas the registration by way of notarial memorials may therefore affect the immovables acquired by the Communauté urbaine de Québec during the period extending from 31 May 1972 to 20 December 1973, the designation of which had not been corrected by agreement, and may, consequently, render the deeds of sale in favour of the Communauté urbaine de Québec to which the memorials relate enforceable in accordance with article 2098 of the Civil Code ; Whereas it is in the public interest to set aside any doubt as to the validity of the title of the Communauté urbaine de Québec to the immovables which may arise from the fact that, in the deeds of sale in favour of the Communauté urbaine de Québec hereinabove referred to, the immovables sold are described without taking into account the cadastral operations carried out before the date on which the deeds were signed; Whereas it is in the public interest to set aside any doubt as to the validity of the registration, by way of notarial memorials, of certain titles of conveyance of the Communauté urbaine de Québec and, consequently, as to the enforceability of the deeds of sale to which the memorials relate ; THE PARLIAMENT OF QUÉBEC ENACTS AS FOLLOWS: 1.The deeds of sale executed from 31 May 1972 to 20 December 1973 in favour of the Communauté urbaine de Québec, established by the Act respecting the Communauté urbaine de Québec (R.S.Q., chapter C-37.3), and listed in Schedule A are hereby confirmed to the extent that they could be contested on the grounds that the description of the immovables sold appearing in the deeds of sale did 3656 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUÉBEC.August 16.1989.Vol.121.No.34 Part 2 not take into account the cadastral operations carried out before the date on which the deeds were signed.2.The registration, by way of the notarial memorials also mentioned in Schedule A, of the same deeds of sale at the registry office of the registration division of Portneuf, at Cap-Santé, is valid and renders those deeds of sale enforceable in accordance with article 2098 of the Civil Code.3.Registration of a true copy of this Act shall be made by deposit.Such registration shall be entered in the index of immovables with regard to the lots listed in Schedule B, notwithstanding the fact that, in some cases, this Act affects only parts of those lots and notwithstanding the third paragraph of article 2168 ofthe Civil Code.4.This Act comes into force on 22 June 1989.SCHEDULE A list of certain deeds of sale to the communauté urbaine de quebec.executed during the period extending from 31 may 1972 to 20 december 1973 and affecting immovables forming part of the industrial park of saint-augustin-de-desmaures.with, in each case, a particular of both ' their registration by deposit at the time of their execution and their registration by notarial memorial in 1989 I.A notarial deed of sale by Pierrette Blouin executed on 21 June 1972, registered on 4 July 1972 at the registry office ofthe registration division of Portneuf under number 197871, and registered by way of a notarial memorial executed on 22 March 1989 and deposited on 28 March 1989 at the same registry office under number 319777;

Whereas the Institution Monseigneur Guay also transferred its movable property to Archbishop Vachon ; Whereas the said property was transferred within a context described in greater detail in the Act respecting the Institution Monseigneur Guay and La Congrégation des Soeurs de Notre-Dame du Bon Conseil de Chicoutimi (1989, chapter insert here the chapter number of Bill 2U5 in the annual volume of statutes for 1989) and, in particular, in pursuance ofthe clause reproduced in Schedule C and contained in the deed registered at the registry office of the registration division of Levis under number 39839 ; Whereas Archbishop Vachon was, despite much effort, unable to find another religious community which would continue to maintain a charitable institution on the immovables described in Schedules A and B; Whereas in practice, the powers conferred on Archbishop Vachon under the clause reproduced in Schedule C have been exercised by the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Québec, a corporation governed by the Roman Catholic Bishops Act (R.S.Q., chapter E-17) and it is 3664 GAZETTE OFFICIELLE DU QUÉBEC.August 16.1989.Vol.121.No.34 Part 2 therefore expedient that the situation be officialized and that the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Québec exercise the powers conferred on Archbishop L.N.Begin, Archbishop of Québec, or his successors under the clause reproduced in Schedule C ; Whereas the immovables described in Schedules A and B are situated in the territory of the town of Lauzon, whereas the town has passed a by-law under the authority of the Act to authorize municipalities to collect duties on transfers of immoveables (R.S.Q., chapter M-39), whereas the said immovables are subject to the trust established by the deed registered at the registry office of the registration division of Levis under number 39839 and are to remain subject thereto after 22 June 1989, whereas the transfer of the immovables by Archbishop Vachon to the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Québec is thus somewhat similar to the situation described in paragraph c of section 20 of the Act to authorize municipalities to collect duties on transfers of immoveables and whereas it is consequently fitting that no transfer duties be exigible upon the transfer of the immovables described in Schedules A and B by Archbishop Vachon to the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Québec; Whereas included in the property transferred by the Institution Monseigneur Guay to Archbishop Vachon are various objects intended for liturgical purposes and it is appropriate that the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Québec be allowed to keep them in full ownership ; Whereas the manner of disposing of the property of the Institution Monseigneur Guay, stipulated in the clause reproduced in Schedule C, is not necessarily the most appropriate in the current circumstances ; Whereas it is just and reasonable that the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Québec be allowed to reimburse the Institution Monseigneur Guay or La Congrégation des Soeurs de Notre-Dame du Bon Conseil de Chicoutimi, out of proceeds of the sale of the property of the Institution Monseigneur Guay, for expenses incurred in administering and preserving the property for the period extending from 9 March 1987 to 18 October 1988 and that he be allowed to reimburse himself for expenses incurred in administering, preserving and disposing of the property for the period subsequent to 18 October 1988, for the fees and costs of his attorneys which he assumed for his own account and for the account of Archbishop Vachon as well as for the fees paid for the passage of this Act, the obtaining of a certified copy thereof and the registration of that document ;
