More heartbreaking situations. Government officials know, but seem to be willing to let Canadian families fall through the cracks.
#EnforceTheCode at the outset.

Can we get home construction in Canada without the trauma it causes to buyers???
We cld, if govts enforced the building codes.
So for now, the answer is no.
Governments: That's not good enough. Do your jobs. Homebuyers pay you to inspect and enforce.
#EnforceTheCode
Considering a newly built home in Ontario?
Think twice.
For 21 years our volunteers have been helping homeowners devastated by Code violations. It's getting worse.
This "consumer protection" ministry tells you to get a lawyer to deal with the issues.

Before the @OntarioPCParty was elected in 2018, then-Critic @erniehardeman agreed w/ CPBH that something needed to be done abt Code violations.
Once elected .@fordnation govt turned a blind eye.

Building Codes states bare minimum requirements. Handing over a defective new build puts lives at risk. Building to Code isn’t an option it’s mandatory. Enforcing building codes is where the system is broken. @CPBH @MaritStiles @JohnFraserOS @fordnation #EnforceTheCode

Thanks for raising this, .@onsinkin!
CPBH's President, Dr. Karen Somerville, who is currently participating on @NRCan Energy Star for New Homes Advisory Committee, raises these issues regularly.

Not all R2000 homes meet Code requirements. They come with Supplementary Standards. Lack of oversight on site, lack of trained trades, getting product out of the ground faster often end up in defective new builds no matter the package. @CPBH01

More conversations with purchasers of newly built homes with Code violations. These are typically very tough battles as they try to get the home properly fixed.
On top of all of the other day-to-day challenges, now this.

Moves like this by household insurance companies are more common than most realize.

.@SMasottiCTV Thank you for writing about this tragic situation with a #newlybuilthome.
This happens far too often. The public needs to be informed.
CPBH sends our best wishes to the Beaudoin family.
