Editor's viewpoint April-May 2015 Table of Contents The Red Mason — Heritage expert calls for more holistic and broad-base masonry trades training . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Can you capture and lead with trend-setting innova- tion, and avoid being caught in the trap of complacency? Our story about Geremy Gutsche's presentation to the Canadian Construction Association (CCA)'s annual con- ference in San Antonio provides some insights – and you can gather others by reading the diversity of stories else- where in this issue. Consider for example the history and evolution of the Canadian Association of Women in Construction (CAWIC) and the profiles of women leaders throughout the country. You can read about fenestration (and the annual Win-Door show in Toronto) and roofing – certainly traditional building aspects that have undergone signifi- cant changes in an era of enhanced safety awareness, and environmental and energy responsibility. Architec- tural innovation and award-winning leadership have been captured in the WoodWORKS! BC Awards.
