Provided I got the timezones and the ICAO code right, it seems that runway 24 (or 29) was more favorable with regards to winds at nearby CYQB.
So the aircraft seem to have landed into the wind, opposite direction to the downwind leg. But it's so close to the airport, I really wonder whether it the aircraft was on approach, or was it was departing, or was is training in the circuit...

Edit: the aircraft appears to have been taking off from CYQB, due to being on the TWR frequency and taxiing first. I can't understand the Friench conversation, but I this the problem is indicated to the tower at 30:minute mark of this LiveATC recording: CYQB1-Gnd-Twr-Apr-16-2020-1400Z.mp3.
