Press Release: LA Maison de l’Île d’Orléans Awarded – Best Sea View B&B and Travelers' Choice Best of the Best 2024.

2025-02-18T13:27:09+00:00

St-Jean-de-l'Île-d'Orléans, February 21, 2025 - For the 2024 season, a tourist cottage on the Island of Orléans has earned excellent ratings on major platforms recording customer reviews. In addition to the enviable results of 9.6/10 on Booking.com, LA Maison de l'Île d'Orléans is one of the few cottages in Quebec to have received the "Best of the Best" award at the TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Awards 2024, as well as the "Sea view Bed & Breakfast of the year 2024/2025" from the UK Travel & Hospitality Awards guide. The owners are celebrating this great achievement. In just four seasons, this resort has carved out a special place, notably thanks to its original concept. Their secret: they focused on an often overlooked aspect of Bed & Breakfast establishments by offering a very special breakfast in the morning.

An initiative that pleases

Indeed, when carefully reading the collected reviews, the comments specifically mention the quality of the breakfasts offered by LA Maison de l’Île d’Orléans, and many mention the numerous surprises that this experience entails. The idea didn't come out of nowhere; it was carefully crafted in the head of Yves Blanchette, the house chef, over a decade.

"It is true that our house has many assets: a pool, lovely rooms, and a magnificent view of the St. Lawrence River. But we had to stand out, as there are many beautiful tourist establishments in Quebec. Yves then made it his challenge to restore the nobility of the first meal of the day. To do so, he designed a five-course gourmet breakfast - different each morning for the duration of a stay - for a clientele that not only enjoys good food but is also willing to savor it blindly," emphasizes Sylvie Lavoie, partner and communications manager.

This chef is amazing!

For Yves, cooking has always been a passion. Today, he fulfills a dream and thrives at LA Maison de l’Île d’Orléans. In his retirement, he remains active by bringing happiness to the guests who stay there through food. He draws inspiration from the great chefs of Quebec and Europe. His raw material, his protein: the soft-boiled egg.

"I had to do a lot of research to create 'The Love Nest' inspired by the young star chef Julia Sedefdjian from Paris or 'The Flavor of the Woods' by chef Gilles Gougeon, owner of the Vieux Puits - three Michelin stars. All this with the sole aim of spreading joy. That's what I try to do with my gourmet breakfasts with an Orléans flavor. Personally, I delight in all these joyful faces and delighted taste buds," says Yves Blanchette, resident chef.

About LA Maison de l’Île

Completely restored in 2020, this ancestral and vacation residence, built in 1881, is part of the heritage treasure of the Island of Orléans. Three generations of women, born Lachance-Lavoie, have succeeded each other as owners of the place. The cottage has three rooms, one of which is intended for people with restricted physical abilities. As he reveals to his guests right from the start, Yves Blanchette was born in a restaurant. His grandfather - a self-taught chef - was the originator, in 1952, of the first family restaurants offering spit-roasted chicken "Chanteclerc BBQ" in Sorel. His father also operated such establishments. However, despite his family background, when he was starting his career, his entrepreneur parents dissuaded him from following that path. That's why he's only just beginning his career.

Press release : T3, In Two Years, From female-led Start-Up to Trusted Advisor for AI Industry Leaders

2025-01-09T09:00:41+00:00

**London, UK, January 10, 2024** — In just two years, T3, a women-led regulatory consulting firm, has established itself as a major player in artificial intelligence (AI) governance implementing AI Risk Management in two of the world's largest AI companies as well as supporting top Ivy League universities and European Goverments with their legislation. Their Responsible AI practice is led by Jen Gennai, the founder of Responsible AI at Google, who has contributed to key AI standards and regulations including OECD AI Principles, NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and the EU AI Act. With a strong focus on responsible AI practices, T3 has been pivotal in shaping governance frameworks that not only ensure compliance but also drive innovation. Recent interviews conducted by T3 reveal that nearly 95% of senior managers view AI as a critical tool for accelerating growth and reducing operational costs. However, 75% of these leaders express significant concerns about data breaches, systemic bias in AI systems, and broader risk management challenges. This duality underscores the critical importance of T3’s work in navigating the complex regulatory landscape while fostering trust and innovation. **Lana Hampicke, Partner at T3**, emphasized the importance of AI : “The global AI landscape presents an unprecedented opportunity to innovate responsibly. Organizations must strike a balance between driving technological advancement and ensuring robust governance. At T3, we help clients transform regulatory challenges into strategic advantages, enabling them to lead the market while upholding the highest ethical standards.” **The U.S. Leads on Innovation, But Canada ahead with Responsible Innovation** While the United States holds the largest global market share in AI, thanks to its ecosystem of tech giants like OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and NVIDIA, Canada has been making significant strides. With an AI market now valued at CAD 20 billion, and Budget 2024 proposing a $2.4 billion investment to continue securing Canada's AI advantage. At the same time, Canada’s early adoption of regulations, such as the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act (AIDA), positions it as one of the leader in ethical AI practices. This regulatory foresight provides Canadian companies with a competitive edge in the global AI market, where compliance and trust are becoming as important as technological capabilities. **Strategic Benefits for Canadian Companies** As Canadian companies face increased scrutiny over AI ethics and compliance, T3 offers critical advantages: Competitive Edge: Rapid adaptation to Canada’s AIDA and other domestic frameworks, helping companies remain ahead of the curve. Investment Optimization: Studies show that one in four AI investments fails to deliver measurable returns. T3’s strategic approach ensures that AI systems are designed to create tangible value. Risk Mitigation: Proactive identification and management of risks, such as bias, cybersecurity threats, and operational inefficiencies, from the inception of AI projects. Pragmatic Governance: Development of governance frameworks that encourage innovation while maintaining strict regulatory compliance. Canada’s government has taken serious steps to ensure businesses align with ethical AI standards. **Expertise That Meets Current Challenges** T3 provides end-to-end support, from building foundational governance structures to delivering operational assurance. This comprehensive approach enables companies to leverage AI responsibly, effectively, and competitively. T3’s success is built on several key differentiators: Experience: Advising the world’s largest AI players equips T3 with unparalleled insights into cutting-edge technologies and regulatory nuances. Value Creation: A methodology that emphasizes measurable business outcomes alongside regulatory adherence. Collaborative Approach: Engaging developers, vendors, and regulators to create holistic solutions. Innovative Perspective: As a women-led firm, T3 brings a diverse and forward-thinking approach to governance challenges. **About T3 Consultants** T3 Consultants is a regulatory consulting firm specializing in responsible AI, ESG, and financial services. By collaborating with industry innovators, tool providers, and regulators, T3 combines practical expertise with forward-looking strategies to help organizations address complex compliance challenges while fostering bold and responsible innovation **Media Contact**: Maria Garcia Marketing Lead marketing@t3-consultants.com +44 20 8087 0917

LA maison de l’Île d’Orléans is now part of the top 1% of best inns in the world

2024-05-29T12:45:14+00:00

St-Jean-de-l’Île-d’Orléans, May 29, 2024 - St-Jean-de-l’Île-d’Orléans — After being named "Traveler’s Choice 2023," the inn LA maison de l’Île has reached the pinnacle of distinctions awarded by TripAdvisor: it is crowned Traveler’s Choice Best of the Best and awarded the Golden Owl. LA maison de l’Île is the only inn in Quebec to have received this prestigious award.

Tripadvisor Awards

Every year since 2002, Tripadvisor has been rewarding travelers' favorite establishments. Their awards are of two levels: Traveller’s Choice and Best of the Best. This latter category is given to places that have received a significant number of positive reviews and opinions from the Tripadvisor community over a 12-month period. Thus, out of the eight million prospects listed, less than 1% reach this level.

“Congratulations to LA maison de l’Île d’Orléans for its recognition at the Tripadvisor Travelers' Choice Awards for 2024,” said John Boris, Chief Growth Officer at Tripadvisor. “Travelers' Choice honors businesses that consistently demonstrate a commitment to hospitality excellence. It means you made such a memorable impact on your visitors that many of them took the time to go online and leave an excellent review about their experience. People rely on the Tripadvisor Travelers' Choice label to help them navigate the myriad of things to see, eat, and do around the world. We hope this recognition continues to bring you business in 2024 and beyond.”

Amazed!

For his part, the owner and chef of LA maison de l’Île d’Orléans is speechless:

“I just turned 70. We are so honored to be part of the select group of travelers’ favorites. I desired it, I hoped for it, but I never thought I would receive this award. I watched admiringly the accommodations qualified as ‘best of the best,’ secretly dreaming of becoming one. These hotels were so beautiful that I thought this unreachable star was not for us. It seems there is more than beauty that counts. Our efforts, pleasant to make moreover, and our vision of gastronomic breakfast are appreciated by our clientele,” says Yves Blanchette.

About LA maison de l’Île

This ancestral and vacation home built in 1881 has been part of the Lachance-Lavoie family heritage for three generations of women owners. It was completely restored in 2020. The inn has three rooms, one of which is intended for people with reduced physical ability. Guests are treated to a different gastronomic discovery breakfast every morning during their stay.

Press release: Two hotels in the Vieux-Québec are changing hands.

2023-03-15T11:15:17+00:00

(Translation : Google Translate)

Quebec, March 15, 2023 – Leclerc Groupe Hôtelier is acquiring two major hotels in the Old Quebec sector, the Champlain and AtypiQ hotels. The company is run by businessmen Jacques, Jean-François and Nicolas Leclerc, who already own Leclerc Communication and radio stations WKND 91.9 and BLVD 102.1 in Quebec and WKND 99.5 in Montreal. .

This is the first foray into the hotel business for the group, which adds 83 rooms and three buildings to its portfolio.

“ The Hôtel Champlain is an institution in Québec, a hotel with impeccable maintenance and service that is greatly appreciated by its customers. As for the AtypiQ hotel, it stands out for its unique offer in Quebec and the singular experience it offers to its customers, charmed by its magnificent terrace and the bright and practical common areas conducive to meetings. Together, they represent high-potential real estate assets. Over the next few months, we will make every effort to improve the customer experience in each of these establishments and maintain the highest quality standards already dear to the eyes of the previous administration. We can't wait to see the team of some forty employees who make up the Champlain and the AtypiQ join our big family ,” said Jean-François Leclerc, vice-president and founder of Leclerc Groupe Hôtelier.

“ Our group is in full growth and these acquisitions demonstrate it well. Opportunities are rare in the media field and we have turned to another area that we are passionate about, that of tourism and travel. As in radio, we are first and foremost committed to serving our customers in the richest and most authentic way possible and we intend to bring the same passion and ardor that drive us to this new project", adds Nicolas Leclerc, vice- President and Founder of Leclerc Groupe Hôtelier.

Located near the Morrin Center Cultural Center, on Sainte-Anne Street, the Champlain Hotel operates in a century-old building that once housed apartments, which has retained its character. It has 55 spacious, contemporary and welcoming rooms and suites.

The AtypiQ hotel, a neighboring establishment, made up of 33 rooms, is brand new, having opened its doors in the summer of 2022. It represents the perfect balance between a traditional hotel and a youth hostel, combining comfort of the first and the friendliness and community spirit of the second.

The Champlain and AtypiQ hotels were until then owned by Ms. Michelle Doré, a well-known businesswoman in Quebec for her involvement in the promotion and defense of the hotel industry. “Creating a family business, developing it with his children, Marc-Antoine and Vincent, making it grow, caring about customers down to the smallest detail, that has been our life over the past few decades. If we sell to the Leclerc family, it is because we are convinced that they will be able to help these two establishments, which make Old Quebec shine, grow. We know we are leaving our employees in good hands and we will stay close to ensure a smooth and successful transition for everyone. “ , explains Ms. Doré. Moreover, the Doré-Couillard family keeps the Auberge Place d'Armes and C3 hotels. “Those who know me know that I am not close to retirement. I still have plenty of projects to keep me young! “ , she concludes.

About Leclerc Hotel Group

Founded in 2023, Leclerc Groupe Hôtelier inc. is the proud owner of the Champlain (115, rue Sainte-Anne) and AtypiQ (109, rue Sainte-Anne) hotels, both located in the Old Capital. The founders, Jacques, Jean-François and Nicolas Leclerc, are also owners of the media company Leclerc Communication inc., which owns the radio stations WKND 91.9 and BLVD 102.1 in Quebec, as well as WKND 99.5 in Montreal.

Communiqué : Les semences fourragères font leur entrée à la Meunerie Benjamin.

2022-02-28T15:06:42+00:00

Saint-Césaire, 28 février — La Meunerie Benjamin étend son offre de produits en ajoutant une division de semences fourragères à ses services personnalisés. Elle a récemment conclu une entente avec ProRich Seeds, une entreprise familiale ontarienne dont les racines sont ancrées dans l’industrie des semences depuis plus de 80 ans.

Dès ce printemps, les clients de la Meunerie Benjamin auront ainsi accès à l’une des meilleures gammes de plantes fourragères pour vaches laitières disponibles au Canada. Grâce à cette entente, des semences de graminées de la gamme Barenburg, reconnues mondialement pour leurs qualités nutritionnelles, seront aussi offertes aux producteurs.

Le but? Améliorer la productivité et la santé des sols grâce à des semences fourragères de variétés pures et des mélanges de graminées légumineuses de haute performance. En proposant des mélanges personnalisés en fonction de la pratique culturale des champs de chaque producteur, la Meunerie devient une référence dans ce domaine au Québec.

L’ajout de cette division, chapeautée par Marcel Choinière, agronome depuis près de 40 ans, n’était qu’une suite logique pour la Meunerie Benjamin qui a le vent dans les voiles, notamment grâce à son équipe des ventes, qui assure un service sur mesure en ce qui a trait aux programmes alimentaires des troupeaux.

Vision globale de l’entreprise laitière

Ce nouveau service s’inscrit aussi dans le désir de la Meunerie Benjamin de s’impliquer dans toutes les facettes de l’entreprise laitière. « On veut avoir une vision plus globale tant au niveau des cultures que du troupeau », déclare Marcel Choinière. Producteur laitier et de fourrages, il s’est récemment joint à l’équipe des ventes à titre de directeur au développement des affaires.

Les semences fourragères ProRich Seeds étant reconnues pour leur indice de performance élevée, la Meunerie Benjamin souhaite avoir un meilleur impact sur la qualité nutritionnelle et fourragère des cheptels québécois tout en améliorant la rentabilité de la ferme. «En faisant ça, on va optimiser la production laitière provenant des fourrages, la santé du troupeau, et ultimement abaisser les coûts de production», fait remarquer M. Choinière.

«On veut amener des produits et une expertise pour améliorer la santé des champs, comme on le fait pour le troupeau animal, tout en ayant un impact positif sur la réduction des gaz à effet de serre et les changements climatiques», termine-t-il.

À propos de la Meunerie Benjamin

La Meunerie Benjamin, basée à Saint-Césaire, cumule plus de 40 ans d’expertise dans le domaine de la nutrition animale. Fondée en 1979 par Guy Benjamin, cette entreprise familiale compte parmi elle une équipe dynamique et centrée sur le client. Avec la nouvelle relève en place à la direction et dans l’équipe des ventes, la Meunerie Benjamin, toujours à l’affût des nouveaux défis en agriculture, détient maintenant tous les outils pour assurer sa croissance.

Communiqué de presse - Lancement de la première ronde de financement publique de RestoLoco

2021-11-17T12:00:56+00:00

Montréal, le 17 novembre 2021 - RestoLoco appelle la population et les restaurants à joindre leurs forces et se rallier contre les géants de la livraison en devenant actionnaires, ensemble, d'une plateforme d’ici qui veut sauver les restaurants. Tous les québécois et canadiens peuvent maintenant devenir actionnaires de RestoLoco. C’est avec enthousiasme que la start-up lance un appel public aux investisseurs pour accroître sa croissance et continuer sa mission d’émanciper les restaurateurs québécois et canadiens des plateformes étrangères de livraison de repas en ligne telles que Uber Eats ou DoorDash.

Le nouveau marché des capitaux qui permet d’investir dans les startups
Investir dans une jeune entreprise n’est plus limité seulement aux anges investisseurs! Jusqu’à récemment, le grand public pouvait uniquement investir dans des entreprises à grande capitalisation via la bourse traditionnelle et les start-ups n’avaient pas accès à ce marché de capitaux. Les Canadiens peuvent donc désormais investir dans une start-up comme la nôtre pour en devenir actionnaire.

Pour sa première ronde de financement, RestoLoco offre au grand public l’opportunité de devenir actionnaire de 10% de l’entreprise et a choisi la technologie de l’entreprise Canadienne FrontFundr pour bâtir cette campagne. Il était naturel pour RestoLoco de se tourner vers FrontFundr pour faire grandir son activité. Sa plateforme en ligne permet à tous les Canadiens d’investir dans des start-ups comme RestoLoco et de soutenir l’économie locale.

Un premier appel à l’investissement pour RestoLoco
Afin d’accroître sa croissance, RestoLoco lance dès aujourd’hui son premier appel à l’investissement public via une campagne de financement participatif, maintenant accessible grâce aux nouvelles plateformes d'investissement en ligne. Grâce aux fonds levés, l’entreprise va pouvoir développer ses interfaces et agrandir son équipe afin de solidifier son offre. RestoLoco a pour but d’étendre son activité à plusieurs villes du Québec et au reste du Canada.

Avec l’arrivée de la pandémie, les restaurateurs se sont retrouvés contraints d’utiliser des
plateformes de livraison étrangères afin de maintenir leur activité durant cette période incertaine. Seulement, ces applications exigent souvent des commissions très élevées et privent les restaurateurs de tout contact avec leur clientèle.

Avec son modèle d’affaire unique, RestoLoco crée des écosystèmes locaux dans chaque ville où elle s’implante en collaboration avec des services de taxi déjà établis. RestoLoco a été créée pour que les clients puissent trouver un restaurant, se faire livrer et même manger sur place. Elle permet aux restaurateurs de proposer une solution de livraison en ligne, tout en conservant leurs précieuses relations avec les clients.

Les détails de l'offre peuvent être trouvés dans le document d'offre sur
www.frontfundr.com/fr-CA/restoloco. Cette communication est uniquement destinée à des fins informatives.

À propos de Restoloco
Depuis sa création en 2020, RestoLoco s'est donné comme mission de sauver l'industrie de la restauration des griffes des géants de la livraison, qui s'accaparent les profits et les clients des restaurateurs. Puisque l'avenir de la restauration a besoin d'une technologie de livraison et de commande en ligne, RestoLoco propose de créer des écosystèmes locaux et durables dans toutes les villes où elle s'implante afin de profiter à tous: restaurateurs, livreurs et clients. Elle permet aux restaurateurs de proposer une expérience de commande en ligne combinée à un service de livraison, tout en leur permettant de développer leurs relations avec les clients. Disponible sur Apple et Android et partout au Québec, RestoLoco a pour ambition de s’étendre à d’autres régions du Canada.

Communiqué : Une entreprise relève le défi lancé par le gouvernement avec la création d’un appareil de ventilation qui désinfecte l’air.

2021-04-27T11:15:47+00:00

Longueuil, le 27 avril 2021 – Au moment où la pandémie a atteint le Québec, il y a un peu plus d’un an, le premier ministre François Legault avait demandé aux entreprises de chez nous de participer à la lutte contre la COVID-19, selon leur champ d’expertise, dans l’espoir de réduire au minimum la propagation du virus.

Notre entreprise de Longueuil, spécialisée en ventilation, a aussitôt amorcé une réflexion à ce sujet qui a mené à la création d’un mécanisme de prévention contre la propagation des virus aéroportés : PUR MEDIC FUSION

Cet équipement élimine les particules en suspension par la fusion de lampes UV-C (sans ozone) à un filtre HEPA (intercepteur de particules à haute efficacité) soit les deux technologies les plus efficaces au monde.

L’appareil qui supprime les gouttelettes et aérosols à 99,9% a été testé, avec succès, par le laboratoire américain HAZMASTER qui met à l’épreuve l’intégrité des équipements.

Le dispositif qui est offert en deux modèles (FUSION-800 et FUSION-1500), selon la dimension de l’espace à couvrir, est recommandé pour usage commercial et institutionnel.

UNE INNOVATION QUÉBÉCOISE POUR LA SANTÉ DE LA POPULATION

Plusieurs lieux publics intérieurs qui ont été forcés de fermer leurs portes au cours de la dernière année, au Québec, pourraient reprendre leurs activités en réduisant les risques de contamination et propagation tout en respectant les règles sanitaires déjà en place. Les domaines de la restauration, de la culture, du sport et combien d’autres tireraient avantage de l’installation, très simple, d’un appareil PUR MEDIC FUSION.

Tous les membres de notre équipe sont fiers d’offrir ce produit qui est le résultat de nos efforts et de notre volonté à être un bon citoyen corporatif.

Press release - Order Request: EAQ ask for the arbitrary measures to end.

2021-02-23T10:00:05+00:00

Blainville, February 23, 2021 - **Entrepreneurs en Action du Québec (EAQ) and co-applicants, will address the court, without delay, to stop the measures imposed by the government without any demonstration of necessity and in contradiction to Public Health recommendations.** It’s time to put things in place with immediate actions following the publication of the written Public Health documents related to Covid-19 last Friday showing the political improvisation of the Legault government. We believe that in the absence of convincing scientific evidence, and considering that we are responsible people, it is urgent to limit collateral damage for people in Quebec. We are Public Health partners by actively contributing to aspects of life in society. Support for abusive and arbitrary measures is crumbling, and it is urgent to review our way of living with this virus and the others. **For more information:** Michael Asbhy, English speaking spokesperson: 514-887-0074

Communiqué: Une application mobile pour permettre aux "petits" commerces d'augmenter leurs revenus.

2021-02-10T12:00:37+00:00

Trois-Rivières, le 10 février 2021 – La dernière année fut très difficile pour les commerçants de proximité. Plusieurs ont fermé boutique alors que d’autres survivent à peine en raison des consignes gouvernementales pour lutter contre la pandémie.

L’application de ‘marketing’ mobile ‘WHATS-OUT’ permettra aux propriétaires de petits commerces de relancer leur entreprise en misant sur une commercialisation de proximité basée sur la localisation.

‘WHATS-OUT’ stimule le marché en procurant au commerçant une analyse de son ‘marketing’ numérique, de l’activité de ses clients, dans leurs habitudes et leurs comportements, tout en leur fournissant une liste d’entreprises basée sur leurs géolocalisations.

Lancée aux États-Unis, il y a quelques années, l’application est maintenant disponible au Québec par l’entremise d’entrepreneurs, de chez nous, qui ont ‘à cœur’ la sauvegarde des commerces québécois.

Les chambres de commerce, à la grandeur du Québec, les Sociétés de développement commercial (SDC), la Société d’aide au développement des collectivités (SADC) et les Centres d’aide aux entreprises (CAE) pourraient créer des communautés de commerces réduisant ainsi le coût d’utilisation de l’application pour chaque ‘petit’ entrepreneur local.

La clé du succès sur mobile est la voie pour sortir les commerces du marasme dans lequel ils se retrouvent. Les gens prennent leurs appareils mobiles partout. Pour survivre dans ce ‘nouveau’ marché, le commerçant local doit faire partie du quotidien de ses clients sans être une intrusion dans leur vie.

‘WHATS-OUT’ permet aux entrepreneurs de communiquer directement avec leurs clients au bon moment de la journée et de la semaine, au bon endroit et avec la bonne offre. Ce ‘marketing’ actif se démarque des autres vecteurs conventionnels.
