Naissance de l'autoneige B12. Au cours de 1941, Joseph-Armand met au point une nouvelle autoneige, désignée B12, qui fera l'objet d'un brevet d'invention le 23 juin 1942. D'une capacité de 12 passagers, cette autoneige présente un profil allongé qui lui donne une allure plus aérodynamique que celle de l'autoneige B7. Dès sa sortie, l'autoneige B12 connaît un grand succès et les commandes se multiplient. Cet élan sera, cependant, freiné par l'entrée en guerre du Canada.  2, record 1, French, - autoneige%20B12
