RouteThis CEO Jason Moore Wins Fiber Broadband Association’s 2025 “Fiber Under Forty” Award

June 9, 2025 By Business Wire

KITCHENER, Ontario–(BUSINESS WIRE)–RouteThis, a leader in WiFi customer experience (CX) solutions, is proud to announce that Co-Founder and CEO Jason Moore was named the winner of the Fiber Broadband Association’s 2025 Fiber Under Forty Award. The honor was announced during the FBA Awards Luncheon at Fiber Connect 2025 in Nashville, Tennessee.


The Fiber Under Forty award celebrates rising stars who are making significant contributions to the fiber broadband industry early in their careers. Jason Moore was recognized for his visionary leadership and groundbreaking work in reshaping how service providers deliver high-performance WiFi experiences.

“The individuals and organizations recognized this year are driving real progress in our industry,” said Gary Bolton, President and CEO of Fiber Broadband Association. “Their leadership, innovation and commitment to delivering high-performance fiber broadband are not only connecting communities, but also shaping the future of economic opportunity and technological advancement.”

With a background in electrical engineering and over a decade of broadband experience, Moore has led RouteThis in creating a CPE-agnostic platform that helps ISPs improve their quality of install, reduce truck rolls, increase ARPU, and scale support operations efficiently. Most recently, under Moore’s guidance, RouteThis launched a groundbreaking WiFi self-install solution designed to enable ISPs to deliver smarter, more intuitive self-installs – while still ensuring that subscribers get the best WiFi experience from Day One.

Moore is also pioneering the use of AI, WiFi diagnostics, OCR, and AR to make WiFi customer experience more personalized, visual and adaptive – whether it’s an install, repair or support interaction, ultimately helping providers differentiate in a competitive market. His work has been especially impactful as providers expand into more rural and underserved areas, where scaling efficient support and seamless installation while reducing OpEx is critical.

The 2025 Fiber Broadband Association Awards drew nearly 100 submissions and recognized standout individuals and organizations shaping the future of fiber. Moore’s win affirms his place among the most influential voices guiding the next era of broadband innovation.

RioCan Successfully Transitions the RioCan-HBC Joint Venture into a Receivership Process to Preserve and Maximize the Value of its Assets

June 4, 2025 By Business Wire

TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust (“RioCan” or the “Trust”) (TSX: REI.UN) announced today that a receivership process has been established to protect the interests of RioCan and the other stakeholders in the RioCan-HBC Joint Venture (the “JV”). The receivership proceeding will create a structured process within which RioCan can work with a receiver and other stakeholders to advance and execute solutions for the JV’s properties to benefit the JV and its stakeholders. This includes activities such as dispositions, re-leasing and advancing potential redevelopment opportunities of individual properties. RioCan’s exposure to Hudson’s Bay Company (“HBC”), whether as a limited partner, secured lender or guarantor of certain JV obligations remains unchanged as a result of the receivership proceeding. For further information on the JV, please refer to RioCan’s press release dated March 18, 2025, RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust Provides Update on Hudson’s Bay Company’s CCAA Filing.


The Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) has granted RioCan’s application to appoint FTI Consulting Canada Inc. (“FTI” or the “Receiver”) as the receiver over all of the assets and properties of the JV. The JV’s receivership proceeding will be a single proceeding that focuses solely on the JV’s assets, and advanced in parallel with the HBC Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”) proceeding.

FTI, as the Receiver, will immediately take steps and actions with respect to the JV and its assets in order to preserve and maximize value for the benefit of RioCan and other JV stakeholders. FTI has extensive experience in restructurings and court-appointed receivership proceedings. FTI will oversee the affairs of the JV specifically, managing the process independently of the HBC CCAA proceeding. Pursuant to the court order appointing the Receiver, the JV’s leasehold and 100% owned properties will benefit from a stay of proceedings to allow the Receiver and its stakeholders sufficient time to take such steps as are necessary to effectively deal with the JV’s assets. The co-owned properties of the JV will continue to be managed by RioCan in the normal course.

Mainstreet Equity Corp. Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

June 3, 2025 By Business Wire

CALGARY, Alberta–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Mainstreet Equity Corp. (“Mainstreet” or the “Corporation”) (TSX:MEQ) today announced that the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) has accepted its notice of intention to make a normal course issuer bid to purchase outstanding common shares of the Corporation (“Shares”) on the open market in accordance with the rules of the TSX.


The Corporation is authorized to purchase up to 475,359 Shares under the normal course issuer bid, representing approximately 10% of its public float of issued and outstanding Shares, as of May 30, 2025. As of that date, there were 9,318,818 Shares issued and outstanding. The average daily trading volume of the Shares for the past six months ended April 30, 2025, calculated in accordance with the rules of the TSX, was 4,082 and Mainstreet is subject to a daily repurchase limit of 1,020 Shares. Mainstreet intends to commence the normal course issuer bid on June 3, 2025 and terminate the bid on June 2, 2026 or such earlier time as the bid is completed or terminated at the option of Mainstreet.

All shares purchased under this bid will be purchased in the open market through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems at the prevailing market price at the time of such transaction. Shares acquired under the bid will be cancelled.

Mainstreet intends to acquire Common Shares from time to time in amounts and prices which its management believes are favourable and consistent with prudent economic and financial considerations. During the period between June 3, 2024 and the date hereof, Mainstreet repurchased Nil Shares under its previous normal course issuer bid. Mainstreet had approval from the TSX to acquire up to 475,229 Shares under such previous normal course issuer bid.

Mainstreet’s Board of Directors believes that, from time to time, the market price of its Shares may not reflect their underlying value. At such times, the Board of Directors believe that the purchase of Shares for cancellation pursuant to the normal course issuer bid is in the best interests of Mainstreet and its shareholders, as the cancellation of the Shares will increase the value of the remaining Shares.

Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future events or performance and by their nature involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those risks described in the Corporation’s Annual Information Form under the heading “Risk Factors” and the failure to realize anticipated benefits of the normal course issuer bid, that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Corporation to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Homeownership, or Travels: Canadian Generations Are Shaping Different Life Milestones and Financial Goals – FlightHub Survey

June 2, 2025 By Business Wire

From homeownership and career success to personal growth and exploration, Canadians are telling us what it means to achieve success in today’s world, with many identifying travels as a top necessity for an accomplished life, before more traditional routes.




MONTREAL–(BUSINESS WIRE)–With economic uncertainty reshaping financial priorities, Canadians are increasingly finding themselves at a crossroads when having to prioritize big spending decisions. In a recent survey fielded in March 2025 by Arlington Research and polling 1,500 adults living in Canada who had flown at least once in the past two years, FlightHub took a deep dive into Canadians’ sentiments surrounding travel and how it compares to other life milestones, such as homeownership and career, to see if the needle was moving as to what was seen as a luxury – or a necessary – activity.

Canadians (also) define success through experiences – and travel is key

The white picket-fence dream does not seem to be a one-size-fits all dream: in a close tie with the traditional focus on homeownership, travel is now seen as a significant milestone. According to the survey, 60 per cent of respondents view travel as an important life achievement, slightly surpassing homeownership (58%), earning a high income (44%), having children (41%) and career advancement (38%).

While 54 per cent of respondents own a home, 30 per cent are saving to buy one and 14 per cent have no plans for homeownership. However, 61 per cent of respondents agree that if real estate were more affordable, they would prioritize homeownership over travel.

“Canadians’ view of success now also integrates different experience-based milestones. While other work or home-related goals are still strong symbols of achievement, the survey highlights that many are finding success in life’s experiences, particularly in travel,” says Henri Chelhot, CEO of FlightHub. “Travel is no longer just about leisure – it’s a powerful tool for personal growth, exploration and creating memories.”

A mix of material and experience-based financial priorities for Canadians in 2025

How do both those experiential and material success milestones materialize when it comes to financial planning and budget choices? The survey found that Canadians prioritize saving for retirement first (70%), followed by buying at home (66%), paying off their debts (62%), travelling (58%), and buying a car (32%).

However, when asked about budget management to respond to economic uncertainty and inflation, it appears Canadians are quite protective of their travel money, which came in fourth position of expenses Canadians say they would cut to make ends meet (41% ranked it as one of the top 3 choices, and only 18% as their top budget cut). Before cutting down on travel spends, respondents indicated that would first reduce restaurants (62%), entertainment (58%) and gift-giving (46%). In fact, travel comes in as the last experience-based expense people would trade-off for food on the table, or other utilities (clothing, 33%, transportation, 10%, groceries, 8%, utilities, 6%).

Additionally, 62 per cent of respondents indicated they would gladly reallocate funds from material purchases such as clothing, electronics, or furniture to fund a trip.

Travel: a necessity for one-third of Canadians; material purchases prioritized for Gen Z Canadians

The survey also underscores the growing importance of travel in Canadians’ lifestyles. For 32 per cent of respondents, travel is seen as a necessity – an essential part of their routine and something they could not live without. Another 46 per cent describe travel as a luxury, while 22 per cent identify it as a “nice-to-have” but not crucial.

In fact, 67 per cent of respondents overall consider travel an investment in personal growth – a figure that rises significantly among those who view travel as essential (88%).

The survey also highlights clear generational differences in attitudes towards travel. Millennials, Gen X and Boomers were more likely to view travel as a necessity and a factor of success and personal growth, therefore prioritizing it over material goods. These groups also have a higher annual average income and are more likely to own a home. On the other hand, Gen Z, with an income under $100,000, still paying off debt, renting and saving to buy a home, are more likely to see travel as a luxury, but also more largely agreeing they would prioritize real estate over travel if it was more affordable. They tend to balance or prioritize material purchases.

“Through generational realities and financial means, it is interesting to notice a strong appetite for investing in experiences despite economic uncertainties,” concluded Chelhot. “Travel being prioritized over daily and more easily accessible entertainment spendings, such as restaurants, points to the financial commitment to mobility and adventure as a fuel for personal growth in other ways than the more traditional routes. As Canadians want to explore outside their homes, the survey is also a good reminder to work collectively within the industry to provide accessible and affordable travel options for all budgets, and notably younger generations.”

About the Survey

The survey, conducted by Arlington research team, was in field from March 12-17, 2025, and engaged a sample of 1,500 Canadians who have flown for business or leisure in the past two years. For comparison purposes only, a survey of this size would have a margin of error of +/- 3% at a confidence level of 95%.

Primaris REIT Reiterates Guidance; Gains Control and Commences Repurposing of Five HBC Locations; Four Leases Subject to Bids

May 29, 2025 By Business Wire

TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Primaris Real Estate Investment Trust (“Primaris”, the “REIT” or the “Trust”) (TSX: PMZ.UN) announced today that it has received notice from the court-appointed monitor overseeing Hudson’s Bay Company (“HBC”) proceedings under the Companies’ Creditor Arrangement Act (“CCAA”) that 5 of the 9 HBC leases within the Primaris portfolio did not received any bids and have been disclaimed. As a result, Primaris will assume full control of these sites effective June 16, 2025. The leases disclaimed by HBC include:

The disclaimer of the above 5 locations will result in:

  • 532,100 square feet of vacancy, reducing Q1 2025 pro forma in-place portfolio occupancy by 3.7 percentage points from 93.2% to 89.5%;
  • $5.5 million of lower annualized revenue; and
  • $3.9 million of lower annualized net operating income** (“NOI”).

“Regaining control of five of our valuable anchor locations allows Primaris to commence repurposing a significant amount of low productivity space, and marks the beginning of our value surfacing exercise,” commented Alex Avery, Chief Executive Officer. “While HBC has been the focus of a lot of discussion and attention, the real story is just beginning, as the disclaiming of leases has finally removed obstructionist barriers enabling us to enhance our properties. We are confident that the quantitative and qualitative benefits of regaining control of these spaces will be materially positive for our properties and our unitholders.”

Anticipated HBC Site Repurposing

Primaris is now able to proceed with certainty. With significant planning and preparation work already complete, management is now focused on rapidly executing on its longstanding re-tenanting, redevelopment, and repurposing plans in relation to each of the five disclaimed locations. Discussions and negotiations are ongoing, and management expects to be able to announce definitive agreements, leases and plans for most of these locations over the remainder of 2025. Primaris’ ultimate goal is to provide clarity for stakeholders and minimize disruption at the properties while delivering new rental income as soon as possible.

“There is strong tenant demand for our HBC boxes, and we are in discussions with strong covenant, high-quality national retailers, including large format tenants,” said Patrick Sullivan, President and Chief Operating Officer. “There are opportunities where tenants are considering the entire box, others will be subdivided, and others are likely to be demolished to accommodate development of new outparcel and higher density opportunities.”

For the 5 disclaimed leases, Primaris estimates it will cost approximately $50 million to $60 million to complete its repurposing and redevelopment plans, which are expected to result in a reduction of GLA from 532,100 square feet to approximately 475,000 square feet. Management anticipates associated annual NOI** of approximately $4 million to $5 million, with initial tenant occupancy expected in Q2 2026, and cash rent commencing as soon as early 2027. The expected overall NOI** yield on invested capital across these five properties is between 8% and 9%. The financial benefits of HBC’s departure are not limited to the replacement rents of the remaining space. Across these five properties comprising 252 acres of land, Primaris will be relieved of the following obligations as a result of the disclaimed HBC leases:

  • 1,866 parking space requirements (13 acres of land at approximately 144 spaces per acre); and
  • “No-build” restrictions across approximately 71 acres of land which precluded construction of any buildings on large portions of the shopping centre sites, including the 9 acres occupied by HBC stores.

All of these properties now offer significant intensification opportunities spanning retail outparcels, the potential sale of excess lands for multi-residential, hotel, or other high density uses, and the future expansion of the malls themselves.

In addition to the above noted financial benefits and removed restrictions, regained control of these leases offers further indirect financial and qualitative benefits to the shopping centres, such as the halo effect on sales and rents from adjacent tenants following re-tenanting, or the positive impact on capitalization rates and valuations for properties that replace underperforming tenancies with new, stronger retailers. Primaris’ ongoing redevelopment of the former Sears store at Devonshire Mall in Windsor, Ontario illustrates the significant benefits that come with replacing low productivity tenants with new and high productivity tenants, along with revitalizing capital investment.

Four HBC Leases Subject To CCAA Bids

Primaris has 4 remaining HBC locations that are subject to bids from qualified bidders. While limited information is available about these bids, including any retailer plans or requested lease modifications, Primaris believes that it will have significant influence over the outcomes of the bids. This is due to the significant deferred maintenance in the stores, and the time and cost required to restore the spaces to satisfactory operating condition for a retailer. Primaris is not yet able to comment on the viability of the operating strategies or financial strength of the retailers bidding on these locations, but it will provide further details in the ordinary course once they are known. The REIT’s remaining exposure to the 4 HBC leases currently subject to retailer bids is as follows:

The above locations represent the following metrics within Primaris’ portfolio:

  • 4 HBC locations totaling 498,770 square feet of GLA, or approximately 3.5% of portfolio occupancy;
  • 34th largest tenant by annualized minimum rent;
  • Approximately $5.4 million of gross rental revenue, per annum;
  • $10.84 weighted average gross rent per occupied square foot;
  • Approximately $2.0 million net rental revenue per annum, or 0.6% of total annualized minimum rent; and
  • $3.92 weighted average net rent per occupied square foot.

New HBC Co-Tenancy Estimate

The Primaris portfolio includes over 2,800 leases, of which there are only 27 with co-tenancy clauses that pertain to HBC. Co-tenancy clauses are provisions commonly found in commercial real estate leases that stipulate certain conditions under which a tenant’s rent or other obligations may be reduced or modified. These clauses typically come into effect when specific anchor tenants, such as HBC, or a certain percentage of tenants within a shopping centre or retail complex cease operations or vacate their premises. In most cases, additional triggers must also be met, such as a prescribed rate of decline in tenant sales, or sales falling below a certain threshold.

Of the 27 co-tenancy clauses tied to HBC, 13 are associated with the 5 disclaimed HBC leases and 14 relate to the 4 HBC locations currently subject to retailer bid. As a result of the trigger requirements contained in the co-tenancy clause, as well as certain mitigation strategies available to Primaris due to its scale and relationships with certain tenants, management estimates that the total impact on 2025 rental revenue from these co-tenancy provisions will be less than $2 million. Primaris is working to reduce this impact to zero.

2025 Financial Outlook Maintained

Disciplined capital allocation is a key pillar to Primaris’ strategy. Providing financial and operating guidance is not only helpful for investors and analysts, as they evaluate the performance and prospects of an investment in Primaris REIT, but it also creates a rigorous discipline for management, including detailed forecasting, as well as a comprehensive framework with which to evaluate outcomes.

Primaris reaffirms its financial and operating guidance for the fiscal year 2025 set out in its management’s discussion and analysis for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (the “MD&A”), which guidance has been reproduced below.

Primaris is committed to clear, timely and transparent disclosure.

  • The REIT first provided 2025 Financial Guidance on February 13, 2025 with the release of its 2024 financial results;
  • Following the March 7th CCAA filing of HBC, Primaris provided a detailed update of its HBC exposure on March 10, 2025;
  • On April 30, along with its Q1 2025 financial and operating results, Primaris confirmed its original 2025 Financial guidance first provided on February 13, 2025, maintaining all metrics other than occupancy guidance; and
  • Today, Primaris reaffirms that financial and operating guidance.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are based on estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties. Primaris cautions that although it is believed that the assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances, actual results, performance or achievements of Primaris may differ materially from the expectations set out in the forward-looking statements. Material risk factors and assumptions include those set out in the Trust’s MD&A and its management’s discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 (the “Annual MD&A”), which are available on SEDAR+, and in Primaris’ other materials filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities from time to time.

Non-GAAP Measures

Primaris’ unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes for three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 (together the “Financial Statements”) were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), however, in this news release, a number of measures are presented which do not have a standardized meaning prescribed under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in accordance with IFRS. These non-GAAP measures include non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios, each as defined in National Instrument 52-112 – Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure (“NI 52-112”). Non-GAAP measures in this news release are denoted by the suffix “**”. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful measures to assessing Primaris’ performance period over period and its ability to meet its financial obligations. However, none of the non-GAAP measures should be construed as an alternative to financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other real estate entities and should not be construed as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. Additional information regarding these non-GAAP measures, including definitions and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP figure, where applicable, can be found in the MD&A, which is available on the Primaris website at www.primarisreit.com and on the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca. See Section 12, “Non-GAAP Measures” of the MD&A for the descriptions of each non-GAAP measure used in this news release, Section 9.1, “Components of Net Income (Loss)” of the MD&A for the quantitative reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP figures for Cash NOI**, Same Properties Cash NOI** and Section 9.2, “FFO** and AFFO**” of the MD&A for the quantitative reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP figure for FFO**. These sections are incorporated by reference herein.

Use of Operating Metrics

Primaris uses certain operating metrics to monitor and measure the operational performance of its portfolio. Operating metrics in this news release include weighted average net rent per occupied square foot and weighted average gross rent per occupied square foot. These operating metrics, which may constitute supplementary financial measures as defined in NI 52-112, are not derived from directly comparable measures contained in the Financial Statements but may be used by management and disclosed on a periodic basis to depict the historical or future expected operating performance of the Trust’s portfolio. For an explanation of the composition of weighted average net rent per occupied square foot, see Section 8.2, “Weighted Average Net Rent” of the MD&A. Weighted average gross rent per occupied square foot is defined as total annual gross rent divided by occupied GLA. Non-financial operating metrics in this news release include GLA and in-place occupancy. For a description of in-place occupancy, see Section 8.1, “Occupancy” of the MD&A.

Hudson’s Bay Announces First Agreement to Monetize Certain of its Leases

May 28, 2025 By Business Wire

TORONTO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Hudson’s Bay Company ULC (“Hudson’s Bay” or the “Company”), as part of its ongoing restructuring under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”), today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to pursue the assignment of up to 28 lease locations in Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia (the “Assigned Leases”) to Ruby Liu Commercial Investment Corp (the “Purchaser”), a corporation indirectly controlled by Ms. Ruby Liu, for the purposes of launching a new modern department store concept in Canada (the “Transaction”). An affiliate of the Purchaser is an existing landlord at three of the Company’s leased locations in British Columbia, which are included in the Transaction.


The agreement is the result of the previously announced lease monetization process approved by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Commercial List) (the “Court”), whereby the Company sought sale proposals from qualified bidders in respect of the Company’s leases. Following careful evaluation of final qualified bids, the board of directors of the Company, in consultation with the Company’s financial advisor and broker, respectively, certain of the Company’s senior lenders and the Court-appointed monitor of the Company (the “Monitor”), have determined that entering into the Transaction is in the best interests of the Company and its stakeholders. The Company remains in discussions with other qualified bidders in respect of certain other lease locations, and will communicate the outcome of those discussions, as appropriate, in the future.

The assignment of the Assigned Leases to the Purchaser is conditional upon satisfactory receipt of applicable landlord consents and/or approval of the Court, and certain other terms and conditions set out in the agreement between the Company and the Purchaser. There can be no assurances that the conditions to closing will be satisfied, including within applicable deadlines to complete the Transaction.

About Hudson’s Bay Company ULC

Hudson’s Bay Company ULC is a Canadian entity that includes the retail company Hudson’s Bay, comprising approximately 80 stores which are in the process of being liquidated in accordance with the CCAA proceedings.

  • Transaction strengthens GSA’s existing relationship with Wells Fargo, with a shared commitment to delivering high-quality student housing

LONDON & NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Global Student Accommodation (“GSA” or the “Company”), the global leader in student housing, today announces the successful closing of a $500 million senior loan facility with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”), one of the world’s leading financial institutions.

“This latest refinancing will facilitate both expansion within the U.S. market and an ongoing programme of refurbishments. This includes initiatives to improve the energy efficiency of the portfolio and further support for students’ wellbeing.

“Student housing continues to demonstrate its resilience as an asset class. The deepening of our partnership with Wells Fargo reflects this and is testament to GSA’s expertise as an investor and asset manager.”

Melissa Frawley, Managing Director of Wells Fargo said:

“This financing underscores Wells Fargo’s leadership in and commitment to the global student housing sector, and we are delighted to be extending the relationship between Wells Fargo and GSA, which spans both the U.S. and Europe.
