“We are pleased with the financial performance of Amica at Westboro Park and we look forward to adding (the community) to our growing list of consolidated properties,” stated Amica Mature Lifestyles CEO Samir Manji.
The four-year-old community has 137 suites.

(Occupancy is expected to be 84 per cent at the end of April.)
Vancouver-based Amica will fund the purchase in part through the sale of 2.75 million common shares at a price of $9 each to Canaccord Genuity Corp. and a syndicate of underwriters.
