The Revenue Agency has registered a legal mortgage on Alexandre Beaudry’s condo, on the 29th floor of this L’Île-des-Sœurs tower.
Montrealer Alexandre Beaudry is not at the end of his troubles with justice, while the Canada Revenue Agency has just registered a legal mortgage on his condo in L’Île-des-Sœurs, located at 29e floor of a tower. He had bought cash in September 2021.
The tax authorities’ motives for trying to get their hands on $1.24 million were not set out in the notice filed in recent days.

Beaudry was the victim of a home invasion with assault in May.
We do know, however, that it was in this condo that the 31-year-old man was the victim of a home invasion, where he was beaten, tied up and threatened with a gun in May.
Millions
According to US authorities seeking his extradition, he was then targeted for his cryptocurrency wallet, which would easily contain millions of dollars.
“Beaudry is in possession of a substantial sum of bitcoins,” the petition reads.
He was arrested on June 30 at the request of the United States, while he was suspected of being a mega drug trafficker on the underground web (dark web).

The Americans suspect him of being a Xanax trafficker on the hidden web, under the alias “AlpraKing”, who used this logo.
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has been investigating him for several years, and they believe he may have smuggled several million Xanax pills under several aliases, including “AlpraKing”. It is a depressant used against anxiety, which is very popular among young people.
A ” king pin »
In a Reddit post, which US authorities attribute to Beaudry, he publicly boasted of being a former ” king pin (drug lord) of the underground web.
The investigation of the Montrealer involves extensive computer analysis, the cross-checking of open information, the investigation of bank accounts and revelations from former collaborators.
Last week, the accused, who is detained, had announced to the court that he wished to present an “exit plan” to be released pending further proceedings for his extradition.
He will have to provide important guarantees, because the DEA fears that he is on the run. If ever the prosecutor in the case refuses the proposed plan, the lawyers will file a formal motion for his release.
His next hearing is scheduled next Friday before the Superior Court.
