Procycle is in Saint-Georges, which is the county seat of Beauce-Sartigan. Having said that, it is possible that Mikado was a local brand which Proccyle bought, as they did have a reputation for acquiring Canadian brands after they started to struggle. Such acquistions included big names like CCM, Miele and Rocky Mountain but also lesser regional brands like Velosport, which Procycle built into a national brand. It's even possible that Procycle was contract manufacturing Mikado before they bought the brand. This might explain conflicting stories on the ownership. It's quite common for brands to change ownership over time.
