Casot is known as the last Jesuit in Canada. Before his death and in his will, he tried to settle the fate of the many properties that were part of the assets of the Jesuits in the country. Despite these efforts, his death began a long period of disputes over the Jesuit estates. The Society of Jesus was re-established in Canada in 1842 by Clément Boulanger.
