#Report

The officer filed report no. Eighth Report. Substantially all business operations of the Vendors are now conducted by the Purchaser (FNX-Innov) following the earlier asset sale, and the CCAA Parties are no longer collecting accounts receivable; remaining activity involves monitoring, monetizing residual assets (e.g., life insurance policies), and pursuing litigation such as the City of Montreal appeal.
