Sojecci II Ltée

Sojecci II Ltée

Sojecci II Ltée was formally established in 2013 to unify the Chagnon family's investment activities, anchored by wealth created when André Chagnon sold Vidéotron to Rogers Communications for C$5.4 billion. The office is governed by Claude Chagnon, son of the founder and Chairman of the Lucie and André Chagnon Foundation, alongside President Sylvianne Chaput. Long-time advisor Jacques Bourgeois serves on the investment committee. The firm allocates capital across a diverse alternative-asset mix including private equity, real estate, infrastructure, and natural resources. It takes a patient, direct-deployment approach, with a confirmed North American real assets portfolio spanning mixed-use and residential properties. While the full portfolio is private, the office has been known to participate in secondary transactions and co-investment structures, at times appearing alongside Quebec institutions such as the University of Montreal. Confirmed holdings include Le Domaine à Pointe-aux-Trembles, a residential asset in Montreal, and Lucilab, a Montreal-based operational entity. The Chagnon family's influence extends beyond investing through the Lucie and André Chagnon Foundation, a major Quebec philanthropic vehicle, and significant board-level involvement with the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal. The family office also maintains the Caregiver Support Fund, L'Appui, and contributed to the Grand Orgue Pierre-Béique at the Maison symphonique de Montréal. The Bombardier family has historically appeared as a co-investor in alternative funds and as a co-party in litigation matters involving the Lancer Funds. No recent deployment figures or team-size metrics have been publicly disclosed, which is typical for a private Canadian single-family office of this structure. Sojecci II Ltée operates with a structure that separates the commercial investment office under Chaput's leadership from the philanthropic foundation chaired by Claude Chagnon, creating a clean governance line between wealth preservation and charitable deployment. This architecture allows the office to make illiquid, long-duration private investments without the redemption cycles or reporting demands of third-party capital, a hallmark of single-family offices managing direct-wealth origination events.
