Vertaling van "were marginal stores that were either just barely " (Engels → Frans) :

I see the parliamentary secretary here. He was at the same meeting I was at where the representative from Carleton Cards said that they would close 19 stores if this legislation came in as it was because they had 19 stores that were marginal, stores that were either just barely making it or slightly unprofitable.
Le secrétaire parlementaire, que je vois en face, a assisté à la même réunion où j'étais et où le représentant de Carleton Cards a dit que son entreprise fermerait 19 magasins si le projet de loi était adopté, parce que ces magasins sont petits et atteignent à peine le seuil de la rentabilité ou se situent juste au-dessous.
