Surfer’s Paradise: A look at Trudeau’s $18M Tofino beachfront rental
The multi-million dollar oceanfront home that hosted Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his family last week is owned by a Calgary-based e-commerce entrepreneur.
And the estate, which Sotheby’s International Realty advertises as a ‘Surfer’s Paradise,’ could be yours for just $18.75 million.
As reported first by the Toronto Sun , Trudeau arrived in Tofino, B.C., for a controversial four-day vacation on Thursday — the same day as Canada’s first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
The vacation garnered Trudeau harsh criticism from Indigenous groups , some of which extended invitations for the Prime Minister to mark the day with them.
Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation members spent Saturday holding a vigil on the beach outside of the home, demanding Trudeau apologize for not attending reconciliation day events, reported Tofino-Ucluelet Westerly News.
On Sunday, the PMO confirmed Trudeau extended a private apology to Casimir .
Title searches list the property’s owner as a Calgary businesswoman.
Municipal land records from 2012 also identify the property’s owner as a numbered corporation, whose website advertises itself as a “secure payment processing solution” for the cannabis industry.
Dun & Bradstreet lists the current owner’s husband as that corporation’s key principal.
The stunning Lynn Rd. estate consists of four separate structures built between majestic old-growth spruce and western cedar trees, all linked by a boardwalk.
