In 2010, the Picus Group moved its headquarters to Canada due to it being a relatively stable nation. It based its HQ, known as Picus Communications, in Montreal - a city that was developing into a hub for virtual entertainment. Picus obtained ownership of Montreal's Olympic Stadium and used the 'tower' section of the building for offices and broadcast facilities. The true owners of Picus, the Illuminati, also constructed a sub-basement under the building where secret projects could be carried out.
