Notes

2014-09-06 - Identified through information in Casavant documents, courtesy of Simon Couture and Denis Blaine. -Database Manager

2018-11-25 - All pipes from the previous organ were reused - 14 new ranks were added; the church was sold in 2005 to the Royal City Evangelical Missionary Church; no current information about the organ could be found, but Facebook photos show the stenciled facade pipes in excellent condition. -Database Manager

2022-11-13 - The organ was dismantled and facade pipes were removed between 2020-2022. Parts were dispersed; some were salvaged for future use in other organs. The chamber is now used for other purposes. -Matteo Spadafora
