| Comments |
Gouverneur Hôtels issued this note as a promotional piece tied to their Île Charron property — a hotel occupying a small island in the St. Lawrence east of Montreal. Hotel-issued scrip of this kind has no legal tender status and was almost certainly produced as a novelty or in-house currency redeemable for services, a practice with scattered precedent in Canadian hospitality but rarely documented in mainstream numismatic literature.
Cataloging provenance is thin. Attribution to 2010 likely reflects the print date rather than any recorded issuance event.
