Ontario: Fire Code refers to Building Code to determine building safety

By Corruption Victim of City of Toronto It was comforting to hear the assuring statement by Toronto Fire Chief Matthew Pegg: – Officials say London inferno won’t happen in Toronto : Strict building codes and inspections should prevent similar infernos “Here in Ontario we are fortunate to have the comprehensive fire protection and fire safety measures that are contained in the building code ,” He further explains residential building in the province must be constructed with non-combustible construction (in accordance with the Ontario Building Code ) ie. be built out of materials that don’t burn. Of particular interest here is the fact that the Fire Chief himself confirmed Fire Code refers to Building Code to determine building safety . In another word, building that contravened the building Code in fire safety also violated the Fire Code (under the Fire Protection and Prevention Act, 1997). Unfortunately, an inquiry with Toronto Fire Prevention revealed the responsible...

Canadian greenhorns think real estate is sure win

But do they even have the what it takes to purchase a 300 square feet cookie cutter condo ? Young Canadians to put their money where their house is: RBC poll Young Canadians feel that housing remains a very good investment, according to the 21 st Annual RBC Home Ownership Poll. Nearly nine-in-ten (86 per cent) of those aged 25-34 believe that owning a house or condo is a very good investment, up from less than eight-in-ten (78 per cent) in 2013. This sentiment has echoed into buying intention, as likelihood to purchase has increased in nearly every region in the country. Interest from the 25-34 age group has increased significantly from one-in-four (25 per cent) in 2013 to nearly half (41 per cent) of respondents in 2014. This change in buying intention points to a renewed confidence in young buyers who may have felt that buying wasn’t an option last year. “The increase in the number of those who feel the housing market is a good investment, as well as the number of those w...

Jonathan Manthorpe believes there is a direct line linking the explosive real estate bubbles in Toronto and Vancouver and how secure Chinese President Xi Jinping looks on his throne. How China’s Politics Messing Up Canadian Real Estate Markets The evidence — the vast amount of money being spirited out of China by relatives, friends and cronies of the Red Aristocracy around Xi — suggests he’s set to tumble . Last year about $US1 trillion was spirited out of China by Communist Party leaders and their hangers-on, in defiance of currency regulations. Image Source They clearly do not feel the regime is secure and want their assets hidden away in stable overseas havens like Canada, the United States, Australia or Europe. Sounds like it’s not “London Bridge is falling down”, its “The Great Wall is tumbling down”?

The deconstructed Canadian flag is made up of hundreds of hanging ribbons.

Toronto condo builders complain they get as little respect as Rob Ford because market misjudged Builders of Toronto condominiums get as little respect these days as the embattled mayor, according to one of the city’s largest high-rise developers. “I almost know what Rob Ford feels some days because people are always taking runs at the guy,” Barry Fenton, chief executive officer of Lanterra Developments, said at the Bloomberg Canada Economic Summit Tuesday. “The truth of it is we’re good, the market is really healthy still and we have a long ways to go on the upside.” Toronto, whose mayor entered a rehabilitation center after admitting smoking crack cocaine, is in the midst of a building boom. The city of 2.8 million people has more condo towers under construction than any other North American city, according to industry researcher Emporis GmbH, fuelling speculation the market is in a bubble.
