In 1712, he loaned the king's treasury a large sum of money to avert a financial crisis. Guillimin had numerous close ties within the Canadian business community both through marriage and business connections. His largesse of 1712 brought recognition by his installation as a councillor in the Conseil Supérieur of New France. He was singled out for praise by Governor Charles de Beauharnois and Intendant Gilles Hocquart. His fortune disappeared later in life. (en)
