Meet the owner

Partners in both love and in business, Sylvie Vioux and André Loiseau may have fundamentally opposite temperaments, but they complement each other perfectly. Talkative and charming, the partners in crime are self-assured and honest as they tell the story of how they met and opened Carte Blanche.

"We've been married for 22 years. We met in Paris in the '90s," says Sylvie. "I was with US Airways for 10 years, having built up solid experience in customer service, while André was working crazy hours in the kitchens of the Senate. He had an extremely demanding schedule at the time, which really held us back from enjoying our new life together."

When Sylvie became sick and fell into a coma, the couple had to rethink what they were doing. They knew they wanted a family and a better quality of life that seemed to elude them Europe. "We gave ourselves the opportunity to get what we wanted by coming to Quebec," says Sylvie.
