About Our Offices

Tactio Office - Exterior


Youville Stables

Tactio offices are located in the "Youville Stables" on "Place d'Youville", one of the oldest buildings in Montreal, located between the trendy port area, multimedia city and Saint-Laurence river. The Tactio building and surroundings were built during the birth period of North America in the late 1600s - early 1700s.

Marguerite d'Youville

What is inspiring for all of us at Tactio when we listen to your needs, design new software applications for you to manage and enjoy a healthier lifestyle, is that we are coming daily to work in the footsteps of Saint Marguerite Youville, founder of the "Sisters of Charity", commonly known as the Grey Nuns. She was canonized by Pope John-Paul II of the Roman Catholic Church in 1990.

Charon Hospital

Saint Marguerite Youville lost her father very young, suffered a difficult marriage relationship, lost her husband and four of her six children, then when she was close to the age of 30, inspired by both her suffering and a religious renewal with her Holy Father, decided to dedicate her life helping and healing the poor. She did this in Montreal by rebuilding what was then called the "Charon Brothers Hospital", and using it to serve the poor families and change their lives. That Hospital is now home to the Grey Nuns, our next door and very kind neighbors.
