www.cadcr.com VOLUME 8, ISSUE 4, SUMMER 2017 LEADERSHIP There is no magic formula, yet there are many good ideas about how to succeed Editor's viewpoint In this issue of Canadian Design and Construction Report, you can learn about leadership. The concepts here were originally researched for a voluntary assignment for the Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS) Marketer magazine. I’ve modified the writing to make it less association specific and included some supplemental articles to provide additional depth and perspective on the topic. I wrote this article before heading south to Chicago and Indianapolis. The latter city is where SMPS held its annual convention this year. Chicago provided the best opportunity for inexpensive plane tickets and an excuse for my wife to join me. She really enjoys the Windy City, and I have business reasons to be there (as we publish Chicagoconstructionnews.com as well as Indianaconstructionnews.com.) Besides relationships and connections, national conferences within our subject/expertise/client focus provide insights and information about trends and business practice opportunities. I encourage you to connect and participate in your relevant trade associations and, if you are interested in marketing and business development, to think about the associations which appeal to your current and potential clients. For an in-depth focus on architectural, engineering and construction marketing, consider joining SMPS. There’s a chapter in Toronto at www.smpsontario.com, and even if you are far from Toronto, the overall resources within the association will provide value to your marketing and business development initiatives. You can communicate with me by email at buckshon@cadcr.com or phone (888) 627-8717 ext. 224 for more information and to suggest ideas for future issues of this magazine.

LEADERSHIP There is no magic formula, yet there are many good ideas about how to succeed By Mark Buckshon, publisher, Canadian Design and Construction Report Leadership. It’s a simple word, yet if you set out to investigate its meaning, you’ll discover many nuances, variations and concepts. For example, what makes a great leader, and how do you define leadership success? We can find some answers to these challenges – and keys to leadership achievement – by asking a few more questions. The first and most important thought is: “Can you describe the ‘why’ (or purpose or higher goal) that drives leadership?” Then you can take the inquiry in more personal directions: Could we reach out to leaders we know, and invite them to share their insights and inspirations? While leadership isn’t necessarily defined by job title (it is quite possible to be an effective leader without a big corner office or celebrity status), context undoubtedly is important. In researching this story, originally for the Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS) Marketer magazine, I connected with several past SMPS presidents, along with others I knew with leadership experience. SMPS, with a chapter in Toronto and more than 60 in different U.S. cities, represents architectural, engineering and construction marketers and business development leaders. For more information, see www.smps.org or, in Ontario, www.smpsontario.com. The informal survey doesn’t provide a single magic bullet leadership answer. Rather, we can discern some themes and concepts that will provide guideposts for your own journey. If you apply even some of the thoughts here (and in the related contributions in this feature) you’ll undoubtedly be on track to become a successful and effective leader. The why behind the leader: The team that fits Simon Sinek in Start with Why: How great leaders inspire everyone to take action suggests that leaders are driven by – and able to connect others to the cause – goals and aspirations beyond the obvious material motivations. He cites how English adventurer Ernest Shackleton set out to explore the Antarctic in 1914. The project ended up a failure in one sense – the ship never made it to the The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 5 southern continent and in fact, ice crushed the Endurance. It took a long and painful journey to rescue the crew. The interesting story here is that unlike many icy expeditions in that era, everyone survived. The key to survival, it seems, was the team, who were recruited with a simple classified ad in the London Times: Men wanted for hazardous journey. Small wages, bitter cold, long months of complete darkness, constant danger, safe return doubtful. Honour and recognition in case of success.” Sineck writes: “The only people who applied for the job were those who read the ad and though it sounded great. They loved insurmountable odds. The only people who applied for the job were survivors. Shackelton hired only people who believed what he believed. Their ability to survive was guaranteed. When employees belong, they will guarantee your success. And they won’t be working hard and looking for innovative solutions for you, they will be doing it (for) themselves.” Passion and vision Mission statements and corporate visions are common cliches “which have been hijacked through the corporate realization process,” writes Brad Thurman, principal and CMO at Wallace Engineering, and a past SMPS national president. “It becomes a matter of course for companies... something you are supposed to do instead of want to do.” Thurman describes how the late John Kennedy outlined a goal in a speech to congress on May 25, 1961, “that was unlike anything his predecessors had set.” Kennedy said: “I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal, before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth.” Of course, at that point, the United States hadn’t even put a man in orbit. “But here was the president telling the world that we’d travel the 480,000-mile round trip to the moon in the next 3,200 days,” Thurman wrote. “Thirty months later, on Nov. 22, 1963, President Kennedy was assassinated. The entire space race effort could have fallen apart. People could have used Kennedy’s death as a reason to defund the program and change the country’s goals. But Kennedy did more than just establish a goal – he’d given passion a voice and that passion was heard and felt by everyone with the Apollo program. And on July 20, 1969, with only 14 days left in the decade, Apollo 11 became the first manned spacecraft to land on the moon.” “Churchill, Gandhi, King, Kennedy – history is full of leaders who were more than simply eloquent at stating a vision; they were passionate about seeing those visions achieved. If you think about people who have inspired you the most, I expect it was the passion that they brought to their beliefs that defined them.” Vulnerability However, Thurston goes on to say that “passion comes with a price: vulnerability.” “Vulnerability is an under appreciated characteristic of leadership... in business and in life. To truly lay out what you believe and how passionately you believe it, you have to make yourself vulnerable. You have to understand that there will be criticism and apathy and even derision. You have to accept there will be people who can’t or won’t accept it, and you have to have the will to move forward anyway.” Listening Craig Galatti, the current SMPS president and a principal of LGA, an architectural firm in Las Vegas, expresses this idea succinctly. “To effectively lead, one must have a pulse on the organization,” he writes. “Listening skills both verbal and non-verbal are essential to the process.” Galati describes where these listening skills served him most dramatically – in helping his architectural practice survive through the recent financial crisis and recession. “The lessons I learned during that time will stick with me forever,” he writes. “I learned that one must learn to use multiple leadership styles and that leadership is not ‘one size fits all.’ In times of crisis the spotlight is placed directly on leadership and those in your charge look to you to guide you through the issue.” Strategic inclusiveness Dana Birks, vice president business strategies at Crossland Construction Company, Inc. in Tulsa, Oklahoma, says she believes strategic inclusiveness is the single most effective quality for effective leadership. 6 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report “I use the word ‘strategic’ because inclusiveness must be a calculated consideration in every leader’s actions,” she writes. “An individual cannot adequately represent the needs of this diverse population. Therefore, effective leaders seek input from sources that reflect the diversity to achieve a more holistic perspective. Research has proven diverse teams are more effective.” She observes some of the practical circumstances reflecting this issue could include asking “why does this program panel comprise a single demographic? Is our leadership team too heavily weighted towards one type of service? Is everyone being heard or is an individual or a group monopolizing the discussion? Are there groups excluded because of their level of experience or geographic location?” Preparation Birks also reminds us that it is important to be prepared. “There are no short-cuts here,” she writes. “You can’t lead without doing your homework and being organized. It is a sign of your respect for your team’s time and assures progress towards achieving objectives in an informed and structured manner.” The ability to say ‘no’ Frank Lippert, founder/partner at Go Strategies, LLC Sacramento, California recalls being taught this lesson from Dana Birks. “That might sound simple, but when you are a nice guy, a people pleaser, a helper - it’s a rough road,” Lippert says, observing that Birks took him aside, telling him: “Listen, Lippert, you aren’t so great at saying ‘no’ and you’re going to need to get better at it fast. So, I’m going to call you once a month and you’re going to tell me two good examples of when you said ‘no’.” “I thought it would be a piece of cake, two times saying ‘no’ sounded easy. Right? Well, I was wrong and Dana, as usual, was right.” Lippert has imparted the ability to say no to others, including a friend who was working as much as 80 hours a week, making her family cranky. “I suggested saying ‘no’ and drawing a line.” “A day or so later, she texted that she’s said ‘no’ and she was texting from home at 5:30 in the afternoon. She was not a jerk about it, she stated her case for her well-being and she drew the line. Her company understood and things are getting better.” “You can say ‘no’ too,” Lippert says. “It’s not too hard. It reminds me a little of what Carol Doscher at Graceworks teaches us, when you think you’re shouting on stage, you’re probably talking loud enough for the audience to hear you. When you, nice leaders, say ‘no’ it feels like you are being a bad guy, but you are really just making good leadership sense. Try it. Say ‘no’.” Respecting others – The ‘servant leader’ As much as Dana Birks reminds us that it is important to put things in balance and be prepared to say ‘no’, there are times when you “have to make difficult decisions that cause conflicts with interpersonal relationships.” “Recognize as a leader you personify the brand of the organization,” she writes. “Because as leader you are looked up to and your behaviours can either positively or negatively influence individuals in the organization and how the organization is perceived by others. This may require adjusting your personal needs and behaviours to support the organization’s objectives.” www.threadsoflife.ca The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 7 Marketing is leadership By Tim Klabunde, special contribution to the Canadian Design and Construction Report Diamonds were not valuable until a 1938 marketing campaign invented the engagement ring and eventually coined the phrase “diamonds are forever.” Santa’s suit was green until it became red during a 1931 Coca Cola marketing campaign. Sliced bread was a terrible idea until a 1920’s marketing campaign promoted it as a time saving necessity. As a marketer, our role as a leader is telling and shaping a story; a story that, in the design and construction industry, will shape the face of the earth for the next hundred years or more. It is not a surprise that I am a marketer in the design and construction industry. Marketing is leadership; it is about changing mindsets and setting a direction for others to follow. That is why I fell in love with marketing for an industry whose product literally changes the face of the earth. As marketers for the built environment we do something exceptional and permanent; two qualities that marketers 8 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report of widgets, software, and just about anything else you can think of can only dream about. From our roles as marketers in each of our firms we also have a mutual responsibility that goes far beyond the industry we serve. Our collective voice as marketers will shape what the future will look like for the built environment, and it is a future that we need to work together to create. It is our choice, we can promote what has always been, or we can focus on leveraging our positions of leadership to promote projects and project approaches that truly make a difference. I propose that together we can shape three key ideas that will have a long-lasting and positive impact around the world: First, we can promote a more sustainable built environment. This goes far beyond reducing, reusing, and recycling because of the enormity of the end product our industry designs and builds. Buildings and infrastructure are arguably the manmade creations with the largest and longest lasting impact on earth. Together we can move the needle if we continually reinforce the benefits of sustainability in our brochures, proposals, websites, etc. This goes beyond just using buzz words and instead identifies the benefits of sustainability and promotes a culture of sustainability. Second, we need to promote connectedness and community instead of elitism and isolation. Anyone who has ever lived near train tracks can tell you about what the phrase “the other side of the tracks” means. This idea is equally important when designing roads as it is when designing mixed-use developments; in both cases connectivity can be used to spur a sense of community that brings us together. This is also important when opportunities exist to promote open community spaces such as parks. As marketers, we can promote the benefits of these ideas to facility owners and clients by appealing to their goals for a specific project. An example would be showing how increased pedestrian flow to a local park would increase revenues to businesses along the route. Finally, we can promote projects that possess flexibility for the future. Just as during the industrial revolution, the built environment continues to struggle with meeting the needs of our changing world. Collectively we need to focus on creating buildings, infrastructure, and spaces that can adapt to the future. The key to accomplishing this is to ensure that teams of various design professionals are included as early as possible in the process. This collaboration is a key to developing the most effective solutions for creating spaces that meet the needs of both this generation and the next. These are just a handful of ways that we can to provide true marketing leadership, but they are each important. Collectively we have a great opportunity, as professional services marketers, to help shape the face of the earth for the next hundred years. It is true that we will most probably not replace the diamond engagement ring, change the colour of Santa’s suit, or invent the next sliced bread; but I am confident that what we will accomplish will be much more important.

The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 9 The five biggest mistakes most companies make with regard to workforce development and how to solve them By Brent Darnell Special to the Canadian Design and Construction Report Workforce development has reached a crisis level. The number of projects moving forward continues to increase, and worker demand (labour and management) continues to rise. That, along with the dwindling workforce, is already negatively impacting the industry. If we don’t take concrete steps now, this workforce development crisis has the potential to cripple the industry. There are many factors that have created this crisis. Krantz’s job ranking survey regularly ranks construction jobs at the bottom. Our industry image is not good. It is viewed as dirty and difficult. We don’t treat our workers as well as other industries do, and we don’t offer very many befits like paid vacation and healthcare. We also have an issue with diversity and inclusion. There are some very concrete mistakes commonly made, and steps companies can take to attract and retain the very best people: 10 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report Mistake 1: Micromanaging Solution: Let them control their own destiny. If you want to attract and retain people, give them as much autonomy as possible. Give them the ability to set their own work schedules and work the way that they want to work. This may be difficult with some projects, but there is always room to experiment. Many companies are toying with flexible work hours and ROWE (results oriented work environments). Mistake #2: No clear career path or training opportunities Solution: Provide a clear career path and the training to get there. All workers, especially young workers, want a clear career path and the resources to attain the skills to be able to make it happen. If your company doesn’t have clear career paths for all employees, and the skills training needed to travel along those paths, this is the time to implement a program. If you are an individual, and your company doesn’t have this career path/training in place, let them know that it is important to you. Get the ball rolling and ask them to provide it. Obviously, they value training or you wouldn’t be enrolled in this course. Mistake #3: No sense of purpose Solution: Make sure employees know your why. Employees, especially younger ones, want to have a sense of purpose in their life and work. What is your company’s purpose? What is the project’s purpose? Do you articulate that and communicate it clearly on a regular basis? Every company and every project has a purpose. Tap into the purpose with your employees. Mistake #4: Employers don’t treat employees like human beings Solution: Make their lives better This is a simple concept, but perhaps not that easy. If you make your employees’ lives better, they will be more loyal to your company. So how do you do that? There are two areas that we see that can make your employees’ lives better. Improve their finances. Hire someone to come in and help people set up budgets and pay off debt. Improve their health and well-being. Start a wellness program (formal or informal) and help them to be healthier and happier. Mistake #5: Work is stressful and full of angst Solution: Create a fun place to work I usually get pushback from this concept of creating a fun place to work. To many people in the AEC industry, work and fun just doesn’t go together. So, what can you do as an individual and a company to infuse more fun in your work, on your projects, and in your offices? Put in games, have contests, have laugh time, start every meeting out with something fun, and promote and encourage fun ideas of team, collaboration, and play. So, there you have it. The five biggest mistakes and how to solve them. If you want more information, visit my website at www.brentdarnell.com.

Combined with the countervailing duties of around 20 per cent announced in April, the combined duties amount to an averaged total of 26.75 per cent, Business in Vancouver has reported. The softwood issue, combined with Canadian assertions that U.S. manufacturers have been dumping drywall in Canada, have set the stage for contentious negotiations and litigation; and higher construction costs on both sides of the border. The Forest Products Association of Canada (FPAC), reported the latest duties announced on June 26 for Canada’s major lumber companies are 7.72 per cent for Canfor Corp., 7.53 per cent for Tolko Industries, 6.76 per cent for West Fraser Timber and 4.59 per cent for Resolute Forest Products. Other Canadian producers will have to pay 6.87 per cent. While the industry expected the anti-dumping tax, FPAC CEO Derek Nighbor said it’s still unwarranted action that the Canadian government needs to dispute. “What we’re hearing from some people is that the numbers might be a little bit lower than they expected on the anti-dumping, but overall, this remains a frustrating 12 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report process,” Nighbor said. “It’s a process where we’re at the mercy of the Americans, and once again, we’re confident that we will be proven right and that these duties are simply unwarranted.” Canada is expected to appeal to both the World Trade Organization (WTO) and a North American Free Trade Agreement arbitration panel, likely after the final duties are known in early 2018, The Canadian Broadcasting Corp. (CBC) has reported. CBC reports that Canada’s lumber industry enjoyed a rare stretch of tariff-free trade with the U.S. in 2016, after the previous softwood lumber agreement expired. Its U.S. market share rose to 32 per cent, but has dropped to about 27 per cent after the new duties. Three-quarters of Canada’s exports go to the U.S. Figures cited this week by the Montreal Economic Institute said that between January and May of 2017, the price of lumber in the U.S. increased by 17 per cent. The increase has caused the cost of a single family home there to increase by $2,400. “It is still too soon to evaluate these effects over the long term since there is much uncertainty in the market, with each player pursuing its own strategy,” MEI analyst Alexandre Moreau said in a release. “For the moment, the weakness of the Canadian dollar, the strong demand on the American side and high prices are allowing Canadian producers to partially absorb the effects of the tariffs.” Trade lawyer Todgham Cherniak told the CBC that the U.S. industry is banking on both duties inflicting real pain. The April finding of “critical circumstances,” which allowed duties to be applied retroactively, was meant to add to the cost of not settling yet, she said. “It’s hard for anybody to get their head around the dynamics of this administration,” Todgham Cherniak says. U.S. commerce secretary Wilbur Ross said he would like softwood lumber to be resolved before NAFTA renegotiations begin later this summer. “I think you’ll see negotiations start in earnest on softwood throughout the rest of the summer,” CBC quoted trade lawyer Dan Ujczo as saying. However, he believes there is only a 50/50 chance of a deal. The problem: There is a hypocritical Canadian argument about the effect of lumber tariffs on homebuilding costs, Ujczo asserts. Ujczo told CBC he will testify at NAFTA consultations in Washington on behalf of several clients, including the Western Canada Alliance of Wall and Ceiling Contractors, which has complained about the Canadian government’s own anti-dumping duties on gypsum board that has increased costs, especially in western Canada. “Part of it is that Canada wants a negotiating chip,” Ujczo said in the CBC interview, but “it’s very dangerous for Canada to be playing this game right now.” Putting rising construction costs for U.S. consumers at the heart of its softwood lumber argument in the U.S. may merk@merx.com backfire, he indicated. “‘Start at home first before you come talk to us’ would easily be the U.S. position on that,” Ujczo said. “The U.S. doesn’t care if it’s hurting the Canadian forestry industry. It’s protecting to make America great again, right?” CBC has quoted Ujczo as saying. “Mexican drywall is coming into Canada to fill that demand,” he said. “That’s red meat for the Trump administration.” Canadian negotiators indicate they have seen little evidence of serious negotiation to date from the Americans. Foreign affairs minister Chrystia Freeland confirmed in June that the two sides remain far apart. Canada could easily take the drywall issue off the table but that won’t be enough, the lawyer said. When he reviewed the math of the April countervailing duties decision, he saw that the Commerce Department is targeting B.C.’s raw log export restrictions for private land. Ujczo described it as an “antiquated protectionist measure” that Canada should be prepared to deal away. The larger NAFTA renegotiation is “inextricably intertwined” in the minds of many members of the U.S. Congress, he said. “Softwood lumber has always had the potential to throw everything off the rails,” he said. “It certainly can change the tenor and tone of the NAFTA negotiations.” www.merx.com www.merx.com/events The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 13 Federal government allocates $2.1 billion in infrastructure funds for trade and transportation corridors Canadian Design and Construction Report staff writer The federal government has announced a $2.1 billion allocation for the Trade and Transportation Corridors Initiative (TTCI) for what it says will build stronger, more efficient transportation corridors to international markets. “As the movement of goods in Canada grows, disruptions caused by bottlenecks in our trade corridors, or vulnerabilities associated with our changing climate, for example – could limit the benefits from this growth in trade,” minister of transport Marc Garneau said at an Ottawa Chamber of Commerce lunch in early July. Leaders in the transportation and shipping industry are enthusiastic about the program, which will undoubtedly create infrastructure development opportunities for the Canadian construction industry. The initiative is part of the government’s planned $10.1 billion investment into trade and transportation projects over the next 11 years announced in November 2016, and included in the 2017 federal budget. The government says the core element of the TTCI is the merit based National Trade Corridors Fund (NTCF) to strengthen Canada’s trade infrastructure, including ports, 14 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report waterways, airports, roads, bridges, border crossings, rail networks and the interconnectivity between them. “With the launch of this fund, proponents are being invited to submit an expression of interest for funding to support projects that address urgent capacity constraints and keep goods moving efficiently along Canada’s trade corridors,” the announcement says. The government says as much as $400 million of the NTCF will be dedicated to support the critical movement of people and goods in Canada’s northern territories, given that region’s unique and urgent needs. Provincial, territorial and municipal governments, Indigenous groups, not-for-profit and for-profit private sector organizations, federal Crown corporations, Canadian port authorities, and national airport system airport authorities are encouraged to submit their expressions of interest by Sept. 5. The government says NTCF funding will be allocated to projects based on their individual merits, which will be assessed according to how they help to strengthen the efficiency and resilience of transportation assets that are critical for Canada’s continued success in global trade and commerce. Diane Gray, chief executive of Winnipeg based Centreport Canada, North America’s largest inland port, said the need for funding was no secret. (See an earlier story about Centreport Canada here.) “I think everyone would acknowledge that there is an infrastructure deficit and it’s not exclusive to Canada but North America wide,” the Globe and Mail quoted Gray as saying. “Most of our trade oriented infrastructure is 30- plus years old.” “Investment to eliminate bottlenecks in Vancouver and the (B.C.) Lower Mainland will allow grain from the prairies and other Canadian commodities to reach world markets more efficiently, strengthening Canada’s economy and improving our nation’s strategic trade and supply chain infrastructure,” Luc Jobin, CEO of Canadian National Railway Co., said in an e-mail statement to the Globe and Mail.

WE INSURED OVER $1,000,000,000 WORTH OF PROJECTS FOR OUR CLIENTS IN THE PAST YEAR. 600 - 1000 Centre St. N Calgary, AB Main 403.296.2400 Toll Free 1.800.565.8132 rogersinsurance.ca The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 15 StatsCan reports $7.7 billion in May building permits: Third highest volume on record Special to the Canadian Design and Construction Report Canadian municipalities issued $7.7 billion worth of building permits in May, up 8.9 per cent from April and the third highest value on record, Statistics Canada reports. The national increase was mainly the result of higher construction intentions for residential buildings, particularly in Ontario. Seven provinces registered gains in the total value of building permits in May, and every building component increased except institutional structures. Residential sector: Both multi-family and single-family components report higher construction intentions The value of residential building permits issued by Canadian municipalities increased 10.8 per cent from April to $5.0 billion in May. Six provinces registered gains in the month, with Ontario reporting the largest increase, followed distantly by Alberta and British Columbia. The multi-family component rose 15 per cent in May to $2.3 billion, following a 6.9 per cent gain in April. Construction intentions were up for every type of multi- family dwelling, led by row houses. Meanwhile, the value of single-family building permits rose 7.4 per cent to $2.7 billion in May, stemming mainly from single homes in Ontario. 16 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report Canadian municipalities approved the construction of 18,037 new dwellings in May (up 7.2 per cent compared with April), consisting of 12,032 multi-family units ( up 11.8 per cent) and 6,005 single-family units ( down 1.0 per cent). Ontario contributed the most to the increase in new dwellings approved in May, bringing the year-to-date number of new dwellings approved in that province to 35,860. In comparison, Ontario approved the construction of 30,661 new dwellings from January to May 2016. British Columbia reported a second consecutive monthly gain in new multi-family units approved following a notable decrease in March 2017, while more than 100 new multi-family units were approved in Prince Edward Island for just the fourth month since January 1989. Non-residential sector: Commercial and industrial components register increases The value of building permits issued for non-residential structures rose 5.6 per cent in May to $2.7 billion, marking a third consecutive monthly increase. Alberta and New Brunswick led the five provinces that posted gains in the non-residential sector in May. The commercial component rose 12.9 per cent in May to $1.5 billion, as increases were registered across several building categories, led by retail and wholesale construction intentions. Every province except Nova Scotia and Alberta reported gains in the value of commercial building permits. The industrial component rose for a third consecutive month, up 9.8 per cent in May to $545 million. This increase was mainly due to higher construction intentions for maintenance buildings in Ontario. In contrast, the value of building permits issued for institutional structures fell 9.1 per cent to $719 million in May. This followed notable construction intentions in April for government administration buildings and medical facilities. Provinces and census metropolitan areas The total value of building permits rose in seven provinces in May, led by Ontario and Alberta. Meanwhile, construction intentions were up in 22 of 36 census metropolitan areas (CMAs), led by Hamilton, Toronto, Calgary, and the Ontario part of Ottawa–Gatineau. In Ontario, the gain in May stemmed primarily from the residential sector, the result of increases in both the multi- family and single-family components in the Toronto CMA. The industrial component in Ontario rose for a third consecutive month, with the gain in May mostly attributable to higher construction intentions for maintenance buildings in the Hamilton CMA. The commercial component, specifically the hotel and restaurant category, led the increase in the total value of building permits in the Ontario part of the Ottawa– Gatineau CMA. The increase in construction intentions in Alberta in May stemmed from institutional structures, as well as multi- family dwellings. This gain coincided with a notable increase in the multi-family component in the Calgary CMA, but was moderated by the Edmonton CMA, which registered lower construction intentions in all building components for the month, except institutional structures. Fort McMurray May 2017 marks the one-year anniversary of the start of the 2016 Fort McMurray wildfire. During this period, the municipality of Wood Buffalo issued record levels of both the unadjusted number of building permits and the unadjusted value of building permits for residential dwellings. In the 12 months to May, 1,817 residential building permits worth $493 million were issued for Wood Buffalo, compared to an annual average of 1,311 residential building permits totalling $194 million since the beginning of the 21st century. In May 2017 alone, Wood Buffalo issued 305 residential building permits worth $92 million, the highest monthly levels for this municipality since January 2000.

Our Rental Pumps LLC builds on high standards as it takes on complex challenges Canadian Design and Construction Report special feature A certified woman owned business by both New York City and New York State, Our Rental Pumps LLC has grown slowly over time, focusing on high standards, a true understanding of the industry and client needs, and the basic idea that no project is too complex. Samantha Ruttura, president, says since its founding in 2011, the company’s fleet has expanded to include 10 concrete pumps and a telebelt. The company’s operations are lean with four competent staff maintaining the office and shop. “We provide trained, capable and American Concrete Pumping Association Safety certified operators to run the equipment but they work directly for our customers. Because of our strong relationship with our customers they trust we are providing the best operators for the project and employ them for their projects.” Focused on projects in the New York Tri-State Area, Our Rental Pumps works largely with commercial contractors working on civil projects including bridges, MTA (Metropolitan Transportation Authority) work, stadiums, and other large scale projects in the Tri-State Area. The company recently placed concrete for the base of One Vanderbilt. “We are proud to have been a part of the largest continuous pour in midtown Manhattan.” Ruttura says, as part of ensuring each job runs smoothly and safely, Our Rental Pumps’ sales manager visits each site to ensure the right equipment is provided for the specific job. “Often in the city there are space limitations which can affect what size pump that can be used. It is our job to ensure the customer gets the correct equipment for any given job.” The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 19 This service and attention to each project, she says, is part of the personal relationships that are key to the business’ success and part of ensuring the best product and the right product for each client and each situation. Another key focus is safety which Our Rental Pumps ensures by requiring all operators to go through the American Concrete Pumping Association (ACPA)’s safety program and be up to date on all ACPA Safety certifications. Concrete pumps and telebelts are also inspected according to the manufacture’s requirements. “This is not required by law but we strive to maintain our fleet to the highest safety standards so we make these inspections a priority.” Ruttura says active membership in ACPA, attending conventions and educational sessions are also key to increasing safety and awareness when placing concrete. “As a small, family-type business we want to ensure the safety of our staff and our extended family of clients.” Our Rental Pumps also provides service and parts from top name brands.

The company has built a reputation based on its ability to understand client needs and to translate that into projects that are completed seam- lessly, on time and on budget. Tak Home Inc. Combining creativity, innovation, problem solving and expertise to create luxury custom homes Canadian Design and Construction Report special feature Vancouver based Tak Home Inc. is a construction and development company focused on creating unique and personalized homes where people can live, work, and play, and delivering them with professional, efficient and innovative service to exceed client expectations. Founded in 2011 by president Reza Hassantash, Tak is built upon his more than 25 years in multi-family and single-family custom homes overseas. To each project he applies his creativity, innovation, problem solving, and expertise to create luxury custom homes. “The characteristics that make any project unique are the comfort, beauty, and usability, combined with an artistic vision to suit the client’s personality, needs and interests,” Hassantash said. An additional focus on energy efficiency suits the rigorous demands of the area, clients’ expectations, and the team’s own personal environmental commitment. Hassantash says specific services include design support, project management, resource and logistics planning, preliminary budgeting, general construction, and land and property development, depending on the client’s needs. “We understand that purchasing a new home is one of the biggest financial decisions that a client will make in their life.

Since that time, the company’s scope has grown to become an abatement, deconstruction and demolition company for developers, builders, and renovation companies, as well as the real estate and residential market. Co-founder Summer Green says her 35 years of customer service, business management and real estate background, combined with husband Dave Robinson’s 20 years of expertise in the hazardous materials field initially connected the start-up with projects such as vermiculite removal from attics and duct tape removal from forced air systems. “Our growth over time has been a direct result of our ability to get the job done efficiently, effectively, and at a reasonable price,” she says. Now with a staff of 17, Removall applies its experience to projects requiring asbestos and lead paint abatement, primarily on lower Vancouver Island. “We have a streamlined process that ensures safety and compliance, and also reduces client stress and ensures peace of mind.” Green says WorkSafeBC requires a plan, including a hazardous materials survey prior to any renovation work beginning, to ensure the project is being managed and carried out responsibly. “We walk our clients through the process from beginning to end, helping smooth out the edges of planning, ensuring the project is completed on time with all appropriate documentation.” The majority of Removall’s staff are long term employees, she says. This means they are very efficient and can do in one day what many homeowners and smaller abatement companies might struggle to do in a week. “There have been many instances where a homeowner asks for guidance to do the work themselves and then calls us back a few days later to finish because it is ‘not as easy as it looks’.” There is a liability risk to homeowners when they organize projects themselves. “Most often when a property owner hires a trade to work within their house, the homeowner becomes the prime contractor and takes responsibility for making certain that all trades are compliant with WorksafeBC guidelines.” The WorksafeBC website is a great resource for homeowners. 24 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report Green says her team works closely both with the homeowner, who may primarily be concerned about cleanliness and safety, and the contractor, often more focused on deadlines and completion dates. “All of these details are very important to us and we want the whole team to feel satisfied with our results.” Right from the start of the process – visiting customers when it is convenient to them, coming up with affordable solutions to challenging projects, and walking them step by step through the process – the focus is on the comfort and peace of mind of the homeowner, she says. “For all of our projects we have a third party environmental company work with us from start to finish ensuring the air in and around our containments and working area are clean.” Safety and environmental compliance issues have changed over the years. Green says Removall works directly with WorksafeBC to be proactive, upgrading safety protocols to ensure staff and clients are healthy and safe. She says the company’s practices have earned them an excellent reputation with WorkSafeBC, the Ministry of the Environment, and the Ministry of Transportation. Another challenge the industry faces is start-up companies launching asbestos abatement services based on a one or two-day course. Unfortunately, Green says, these companies will go in with a low bid to secure clients, but then lack of experience and an inability to do the job properly can mean a second company must be called in to finish the work. “Even worse, if proper containments were not in place prior to asbestos material being disturbed there is extensive hazmat cleaning required, sometimes of the homeowner’s personal belongings. This is both costly and inconvenient, not to mention emotionally taxing for the client.” Removall has recently purchased a new building and will be expanding its resources, including some more instructional type services, this fall. “We are looking forward to the upgrades to the building and invite you to come in and discuss your abatement project with us,” Green said.

The com- pany, which began with a focus on land development, now constructs commercial and residential projects, including multi-family residential, and infrastructure including dams and bridges. Based in the East Kootenay of B.C., New Dawn has opened a renovation and restoration division to support its growing efforts. The company also has an office in Fort McMurray, where it is applying its expertise to help the community rebuild. The company has worked on projects ranging from dam and spillway work to a 68-unit ski-in/ski- out luxury hotel complex. President and CEO Chad Jensen joined the company his father Rick established in 1978 after acquiring his de- gree in management at the University of Lethbridge. With the tourist boom in the area, and the rising demand for ski hill and lakeside properties, New Dawn turned its focus to residential and multi-family, adapting to the demand and growing from a few homes a year to 180 in one year alone. “Given the terrain in the area we often build homes on challenging sites and work closely with geo-technical en- gineers when working on steep slope lots and in close proximity to the waterfront to ensure the safety of the pro- jects, as well as the overall environment.” With the real estate crash in 2008, the company again responded, maintaining its residential focus but adding commercial and infrastructure to its growing portfolio. Today, the staff of 65 is comprised of experts across all areas of construction and development. From architectural technologists to interior designers, Jensen says his team can take a client from concept through construction through finishing stages, all with in-house staff and exper- tise. “We are the only one-stop shop between Calgary and Kelowna,” he said. New Dawn Developments’ services include design, cost estimating, scheduling, contract document prepara- tion and project management. The company is experi- enced in the nuances of stipulated sum, design build tender, and construction management projects. Jensen says one of the reasons for the company’s abil- ity to adapt and thrive is the inter-generational balance. “I’m younger, ready to push ahead and my father has the experience to know when to sit back. We’re still a family owned business so we know and work closely with our team and are actively involved.” 26 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report That balance is also reflected in the company’s staff, with many long-term employees and many younger staff learning and benefitting from the available mentoring. “We recognize that with retirement there is a great potential for loss of knowledge so we balance that with younger, skilled people ready to learn from and take advantage of that knowledge.” New Dawn Developments has been recognized with several awards in recent years including the 2014 CHBA (Canadian Home Builders’ Association) Rocky Mountain Housing Award for Best Single Family Home up to 2,000 sq. ft. under $500,000; the 2015 Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce Business Maker of the Year award; the Best of Business Award 2016; and a Georgie Award in 2016 for Best Single Family Detached Home up to 2,000 sq. ft. and under $500,000 – Production. Jensen was recognized as the “2011 Residential Con- struction Person of the Year,” as well as “Top 20 Most In- fluential People in Residential Construction for 2012” by BC Homes Magazine. Beyond its work helping to rebuild Fort McMurray, New Dawn Developments is also very active in its local com- munity, supporting the Cranbrook Women’s Resource Centre, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cranbrook, elementary school breakfast programs, the BC SPCA, and the Cran- brook Kimberley Hospice Society.

C O M The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 27 B.C.’S TOP 10 LEADING HOMEBUILDERS VictorEric celebrates 20 years as Vancouver based custom home builder with values based design and Passive House initiatives Canadian Design and Construction Report staff writer Vancouver based VictorEric is celebrating its twentieth anniversary designing and building custom homes. The company has added Passive House (PH) design to its list of offerings and uniquely serves the multi-cultural Lower Mainland marketplace through its multi-lingual staff. While the firm now employs almost 50 across a range of disciplines, in 2007, with a staff of only six, it had already begun to achieve industry recognition with its first Georgie Award. Founder Eric Lee came to Canada with his family in 1979. He says that from an early age he developed an in- terest in design and construction, which was evident in his preferred toy – Lego – and his determination to access construction sites to observe framing and other details. He says his early experiences instilled in him the value of honesty, integrity, hard work, perseverance and personal development. That and natural talent led to his first home design at the age of 18. Lee formalized his education by studying architecture through BCIT’s Building Technology Program, later adding education in interior design. Today VictorEric uses a de- sign-build approach to address construction management, budget direction, interior design and landscape design for a full custom home solution. “Whereas most builders subcontract a designer or use stock plans, we offer a truly integrated design-build model wherein our inhouse construction experts participate in de- sign discovery meetings to fully understand clients’ needs and budgets,” he said. Listening to clients means hearing not just what they think they want in a home, but understanding their inter- ests and lifestyles, he says. “Then we seek to inspire every client to create a legacy home which fills them with pride for generations to come. Our biggest difference is that we are truly integrated from AD, ID, LD (architectural, interior and landscape design) to construction management staff. This gives us utmost con- trol to deliver the best customer experience.” Lee says the company is able to focus its expertise by being selective about the projects it will take on, ensuring that the team and clients are aligned in their values and goals. Those values are also evident in the integrity he says the company strives to bring to the industry and the lower mainland region VictorEric serves. “We care (VE Care) is our motto and we measure ourselves by whether our em- ployees and customers feel we are demonstrating the ap- propriate level of care in each situation.” 28 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report Passive House construction has evolved to meet the company’s VE Care model, he says. “A low carbon foot- print home is environmentally ethical. Passive Houses use 90 per cent less energy to heat, they tend to be healthier homes for the client with a more consistent temperature which provides the best thermal comfort.” Lee says he sees the PH design standard being pushed by more jurisdictions and believes this should be the future standard. “For us, being ahead of the curve is where we are most comfortable.” Many of the PH design components can serve non-PH projects equally. Greater wall thickness, higher R values, roof and window overhang designs better suited to heat- ing and cooling internal temperatures based on the sun’s seasonal angle and the natural convection process in the home, and high-performance HVAC are just some of these. Hidden, they do not impact the home’s design from an aesthetic perspective but work invisibly to create a better environment. He says consumer uptake in PH has grown to the point that it’s economically viable for VictorEric to be designing Canada’s first fully Passive House subdivision in Harrison, B.C., named Panorama. “We hope suppliers will be able to keep up with the demand for the unique materials needed for these premium structures.” The growth in PH demand has been the result of much education. “People often don’t even understand the cost benefit of triple pane windows much less an entire Passive House. When potential clients see on paper just how much of a benefit a Passive House can be there is certainly a lot of excitement.” In 2014, responding to customer demand for the oppor- tunity to invest in development projects, VictorEric Select Projects was launched. “VSP offers boutique develop- ments for people who appreciate quality and style but may not be able to afford an entirely custom single-family home,” he said. “Dickens at Kensington is an eleven-unit project, with a unique character home duplex element which is in the finishing stage. With only two units left, we are pleased to say it basically sold out prior to our ability to advertise its existence. The Lancaster Collection is an upcoming project of five graceful, stacked townhomes under the same um- brella.” VictorEric has been named one of the Top Five Best Em- ployers in B.C. by Small Business BC the past two years. Part of this may be the result of the emphasis Lee says the company places on fun, family, fitness, continuing educa- tion and promoting from within. “Aside from regular train- ing, junior staff are paired with more experienced senior staff – buddies - to help both individuals grow.” “We are proud of our family like culture that we’ve de- veloped over the years with monthly activities, contests and challenges,” he said. In addition, unique monthly bonus programs allow staff to directly profit from the money they save the company on both projects and marketing. VictorEric has also been recognized in the past year for its projects including Georgie’s for Best Interior Design and Best Any Room, an Ovation Award for Best Interior and Best Outdoor Space. Lee is a long standing member of the Greater Vancouver Home Builder’s Association, a career mentor for BCIT stu- dents, and a volunteer with Big Brothers of Greater Van- couver.

L.P.C. services both the industrial and commercial sectors. The indus- trial market includes water and sewage treatment plants, towers, tanks, mining and manufacturing facil- ities. Commercially, work includes malls, stores, office and residential towers, education facilities, hospitals, transportation and other infrastruc- ture. Tawaststjerna explains that work- ing in both the commercial and indus- trial sectors means that when one economic area is soft, he can redirect energy to the other. This allows L.P.C. to keep people working and, he says, ensures that key staff stay engaged 30 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report and employed. “We take pride in our skilled and experienced team,” he said. The company handles more than 100 projects of varying size and scope annually, employing about 70 staff at any given time. In 2005, L.P.C. expanded its busi- ness to Western Canada and has tack- led projects in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Some of these include work for Alberta Health, the University of Calgary, The Bow Office Tower, Manulife Place, the Calgary Interna- tional Airport expansion, K + S Potash, and Winnipeg Women’s Hos- pital redevelopment. In Ontario, L.P.C. is active in mall and retail development, transporta- tion, water and sewage treatment plants and data centres. Current proj- ects include TTC York Spadina Sub- way Stations, VIVA and Metrolinx, Union Station retail development and treatment plants throughout Ontario. Services provided include painting, intumescent and special coatings, wall coverings and epoxy flooring services. Tawaststjerna says L.P.C. is com- mitted to providing a high standard of quality assurance and quality control for its clients. “Some companies won’t take on projects that are heavily focused on QA/QC. However, we are committed to providing these processes, because a high level of QA/QC is part of what we do.” L.P.C. Ltd. is structured to be lean and competitive, says Tawaststjerna, but also recognizes that to keep clients, ensuring safety, quality, and at- tention to detail are key. Being COR certified, he says, helps. “I believe that these processes, the internal reflec- tion, education, auditing and self-au- dits have made us better. Safety and reflection on QA/QC go hand in hand and ensure that systems are not only in place, but that they’re working.” For more information, contact Leonard Tawaststjerna at (416) 782- 2815 or leonard@lpclimited.com.

The 19-storey Terrace House, built from locally sourced timber, glass and concrete, will reach 71 m. in height and will contain a collection of private homes in Coal Harbour, Vancouver. Shigeru Ban Architects Americas has designed the building, with a slop- ing triangular roof, and will be covered in natural materials. “We have brought together the best of the best – a team of true ex- perts in creative collaboration, working together for the first time ever on a sin- gle project,” PortLiving founder Macario (Tobi) Reyes said in a state- ment. The world’s tallest timber building, the 57 m. Brock Commons, is also in Vancouver. On one website, a commenter noted that the assertion that this is the tallest wood hybrid structure may be overstated. “Most websites report that this will be the world’s tallest wooden hybrid structure, but this is not true,” the comment on Global Construction Re- view News said. “The tallest hybrid will be HoHo Wien in Vienna with 24- storeys and 84 m. height. And it’s con- struction is already ongoing and will probably be finished by the end of 2018. No way the Terrace House will be completed any sooner.” PCL Construction Management Inc. (Calgary) has been awarded the $1.1 billion design-build contract for the new Calgary Cancer Centre. The project is the international Ed- monton headquartered contractor’s largest design-build lump sum win to date, PCL says in a news release. The new facility will measure more than two million sq. ft., including a 1,650- stall underground parking garage and a 984-linear ft. elevated walkway that connects with existing facilities. There will be 160 inpatient beds; 15 new ra- diation vaults; outpatient cancer clin- ics; a clinical trials unit; and research laboratories. “PCL is honoured to be leading the team that will bring this worldclass fa- cility to Calgary, knowing that we can help make a very real difference in our community to cancer patients and their families,” said PCL president and CEO Dave Filipchuk. “Our company takes pride in all of the projects we build, and the Calgary Cancer Centre will be another exceptional facility where our healthcare building exper- tise shines through.” The vision for the centre is to de- liver leading comprehensive cancer care that integrates patient and family focused care, education, prevention, screening, and cancer research. It will also be one of the most energy effi- cient hospitals in North America, and LEED Silver certification is targeted. Local partners DIALOG and Stantec are also working on the project. Con- struction will begin in late 2017 and is scheduled for completion in 2022. 32 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report Whirlpool Canada breaks ground at CN’s Calgary Logistics Park Whirlpool Canada has started build- ing a new distribution centre at CN’s Calgary Logistics Park in Rocky View County, Alberta, in a project overseen by developer Tribal Partners/Matthews Southwest. “We are very pleased to welcome Whirlpool Canada as a major tenant in our state-of-the-art Calgary Logistics Park,” said Andrew Fuller, assistant vice-president of domestic intermodal at CN. “By locating at our Calgary Lo- gistics Park, Whirlpool can provide customers with the supply chain and logistics flexibility they need to service their customers and increase their competitiveness.” Whirlpool representatives joined CN to break ground on the 425,000 sq. ft. facility that will serve as a distribu- tion centre for finished Whirlpool ap- pliances coming to Alberta from across North America. Stephen Stewart, director of supply chain at Whirlpool Canada, said: “Our new regional distribution centre at CN’s Calgary Logistics Park provides us with a direct connection to CN’s rail network and transportation services, allowing us to deliver our major appli- ances for our retail partners more effi- ciently and reliably.” SASKATCHEWAN Regina based developer brings first Built Green Canada community to Saskatchewan Homes in Saskatchewan’s first Built Green Canada community, The Au- tumn Ridge Estates 42-lot subdivision south of Regina, will be certified through the organization. In parallel with the release of these lots, the Government of Saskatchewan is scheduled to adopt 9.36 of the build- ing code in the coming months. This will be the first time the code ad- dresses energy efficiency in Saskatchewan, which means all builders will have energy efficient re- quirements they must meet. Built Green Canada says its pro- grams are complementary to the in- coming code as they include energy efficiency, integrating Natural Re- sources Canada’s EnerGuide label, and then go beyond to include the preservation of natural resources, re- duction of pollution, ventilation and air quality, and the improvement of home durability. “The convergence of this develop- ment with the incoming 9.36 is fortu- itous and shows the leadership coming from within the industry putting builders ahead of regulation,” says Jenifer Christenson, chief execu- tive officer of Built Green Canada. “The growth of our programs, in large part, is due to progressive builders who continue to pursue better building technologies and innovations.” Todd Bodnar of Dakine Home Builders, and the developer behind Au- tumn Ridge Estates, was the first builder in the province to certify their builds through a third-party program that includes energy, as well as mate- rials and methods, indoor air quality, ventilation, waste management, water conservation, and business practices. “We believe that environmental leadership encompasses careful col- laboration with all our suppliers and subtrades to ensure each home we build has a low environmental impact. From beginning to end, we look for ways to reduce construction waste and increase a home’s efficiency to re- duce our carbon footprint,” says Bod- nar. “We’re proud to be expanding on this by developing a community of homes certified through Built Green Canada.” MANITOBA Canada Green Building Council announces 100th Manitoba LEED certification The Canada Green Building Council (CaGBC) and the CaGBC Manitoba Chapter say that Manitoba has achieved its 100th LEED certified pro- ject. Totalling 601,753 sq. m. of space, these 100 LEED certifications repre- sent Manitoba’s greenest and most sustainable buildings, with 72 certifica- tions in Winnipeg, six in Brandon, and the remaining 22 projects spread across the province, CaGBC says in a news release. The 100th project is Stantec’s new Winnipeg office at 311 Portage St., which earned LEED Gold for Commer- cial Interiors certification on June 27. This 55,000 sq. ft. office space amalga- mates the company’s many office lo- cations into one central spot in the city, and incorporated various green design measures in order to achieve a con- struction waste diversion of 91.33 per cent, a 36.7 per cent reduction in in- stalled lighting power density over ASHRAE 90.1-2004, and reduction of 61.43 per cent over baseline for water fixture performance. “This excellent outcome in achiev- ing LEED Gold certification in the Com- mercial Interiors rating system is the result of strong collaboration within our architecture, interior design, and engi- neering buildings team,” says Eric Wiens, Stantec vice-president and re- gional leader, Manitoba. “I can’t think of a better way to serve as a role model for our clients than to achieve this cer- tification from the CaGBC and to demonstrate our own high perfor- mance design capacity right within our Stantec office in downtown Winnipeg.” Manitoba’s 100 LEED certified pro- jects include 16 LEED Certified, 41 LEED Silver, 34 LEED Gold, and nine LEED Platinum. Rating system types are broken down as 72 new construc- tion or core and shell projects, six com- mercial interiors projects, five existing building certifications, and 17 homes projects, with a total of 50 residential units. In addition to certifications, there are an additional 121 projects regis- tered with the intention to certify, which total more than 800,000 sq. m. of space. 11-year-old sets fire through emergency room under construction at Winnipeg’s Grace Hospital An 11-year-old boy is accused of setting a fire that tore through the roof of a new emergency room still under construction at Winnipeg’s Grace Hos- pital, CBC has reported. Crews were called to the construc- tion site on the hospital’s north side around 10:50 p.m. on July 2. Fire officials said the water supply was restricted because one fire hy- drant wasn’t working. However, they contained the flames mostly to the roof. The boy was arrested in connection with the fire but he is under 12 and therefore too young to face charges under Canadian law, police said. Canada Post paid Winnipeg mail processing plant builders six years after construction completed: CBC report Canada Post continued to pay builders of the Winnipeg mail process- ing plant six years after the facility was complete, and more than a year after RCMP first learned of possible fraud in the construction project, Canadian Broadcasting Corp. (CBC) News has reported. The details are found in a Feb. 2, 2017 sworn affidavit RCMP used to force TD Bank to provide records re- lated to the joint venture between Caspian Projects Inc. and AECON, the two companies hired by Canada Post to build the Winnipeg mail processing The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 33 NEWS BRIEFS plant near Richardson International Air- port in 2008. CBC says RCMP said earlier this year they are investigating the con- struction of the mail processing plant, which was built by the company re- sponsible for the Winnipeg police headquarters project — which has been under investigation for two years. Both the airport postal facility and the downtown police HQ were built by Caspian Construction. Investigators were permitted to look at the banking activity in the joint venture account between July 1, 2008 — the date the contract was signed to construct the Winnipeg mail process- ing plant — and Jan. 1, 2016, when RCMP said Canada Post made its last payment to the builders. The Winnipeg Construction Associ- ation (WCA) said it’s highly unusual for a company like Canada Post to still be paying builders six years after a project was completed. “Normally the final monies flow after the building is declared substan- tially complete by the design team,” said WCA president Ron Hambley. “At that point, the builder’s lien holdback of 7.5 per cent plus amounts for out- standing items would remain to be paid.” “Lien holdback is supposed to flow after 40 days. The other amounts won’t flow until work is completed,” Hambley said. Caspian and AECON declined to comment to CBC. ONTARIO Ottawa: Feds offer $1.09 billion for LRT second stage as city decides on three finalists for $3.5 billion project CONSTRUCTION ACROSS CANADA Three construction teams have been qualified to compete for the sec- ond stage of the Ottawa LRT project, which received a boost on June 16 when the federal government formally committed as much as a $1.09 billion for the overall $3.5 billion initiative. The finalist names are expected to be announced within weeks. Then the O-Train planning office, led by Chris Swail, will bring the project to the award stage with a report to Ottawa city council. Rideau Transit Group, (RTC) won’t be one of the shortlisted Stage 2 bid- ders, since it agreed to a $492-million contract with the city to maintain the LRT line, provide communication equipment, expand the maintenance yard and supply 38 more Alstrom LRT trains. The overall construction project in- cludes rail extensions east and west, as well as an expansion of the first stage Trillium Line to Riverside South and the airport, as well as widening Highway 417 between Highway 416 and Maitland Ave. There will be 38 km. of new rail built beginning in 2018. Trillium Line exten- sions (which RTG can bid on) to the air- port and Bowesville Rd. in Riverside South are planned to open in 2021. Then the eastern LRT to Trim Rd. will be completed by 2022 and the west- ern extensions to Moodie Dr. and Al- gonquin College will be ready by 2023. The costs of the core LRT and Tril- lium Line will be shared equally by the municipal, provincial and federal gov- ernments. The province and feds will split extra costs for the $315 million rail extensions to Trim Rd. and the air- port. The federal government has already committed more than $67 million for 34 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report Stage 2 planning through the first phase of the Public Transit Infrastruc- ture Fund last year. Toronto: Governments allocate $1.185 billion for flood protection project to develop Toronto’s waterfront area Federal, provincial and municipal government have committed to spending $1.185 billion on the Toronto Port Lands Flood Protection project that will lead to extensive develop- ment of a major stretch of Toronto’s waterfront. At a June 28 news conference, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne and Toronto Mayor John Tory joined Waterfront Toronto CEO Will Fleissig to announce joint the funding for Waterfront Toronto. The Government of Canada will contribute as much $384 million to this project, and the Government of Ontario and the City of Toronto will each contribute more than $400 mil- lion. These investments will help protect Toronto’s Port Lands from flooding and lay the groundwork to transform the underused industrial area into a vibrant and resilient downtown neighbour- hood, a news release says. In the last decade, global warming has resulted in increased flooding in urban areas. The project will provide critical flood protection through the creation of a naturalized mouth for the Don River. It will also help clean up contaminated soil, unlock land ripe for development, and establish new aquatic habitats and wetlands that support native species. These efforts will help support the long-term transformation of the Port Lands into new mixed-use communi- ties with residential and commercial development – including affordable housing – surrounded by parks and green space. The Port Lands Flood Protection project will take approximately seven years to complete. These funds are in addition to an earlier announcement of $65 million in infrastructure funding under the Clean Water and Wastewater Fund for the Cherry Street Storm Water and Lakefill- ing project. This amount is included in the total $1.25 billion cost for the Port Lands Flood Protection project, the news release said. Logistec Corporation acquires a majority interest in Toronto based FER-PAL Construction Ltd. Logistec Corporation, a marine and environmental services provider, says it has acquired 51 per cent of the shares of FER-PAL Construction Ltd., a trenchless technology company that offers complete water main rehabilita- tion solutions, for an aggregate pur- chase price of $49.5 million, subject to adjustments. Established in 1986 and based in Toronto, FER-PAL specializes in water- main rehabilitation projects utilizing trenchless technologies of all types and sizes for municipalities in Canada and the United States. FER-PAL has enjoyed a longstand- ing relationship with Sanexen Environ- mental Services Inc., a subsidiary of Logistec, which has developed the proprietary technology for the trench- less rehabilitation of watermains, com- mercialized under the name Aqua-Pipe. For the year ended December 31, 2016, FER-PAL generated revenues of $97.4 million and profit attributable to owners of $8.2 million. Windsor: LiUNA Local 625 introduces medical marijuana benefit An Ontario construction union local is introducing medical marijuana cov- erage into its benefits plan, effective June 15, Benefits Canada reports. LiUNA Local 625 represents around 1,500 active construction workers and 1,600 dependants and retirees in the Windsor area. It began researching medical marijuana coverage two years ago, motivated by the desire to reduce the amount of opiates its members take, says business manager Rob Petroni. “Our members work in construc- tion, which is a physically demanding job,” he says in the published report. If a worker gets injured, Petroni says he wants them to have a treatment op- tion beyond highly addictive opiates, which can wreak havoc on both bodies and careers. “(If) you have an injury, you start tak- ing a Percocet. Next thing you know, it’s two Percocet, then it’s four a day. I would assume that workers, not just my members, go to work and deal with pain (by using) opiates.” The LiUNA plan has two levels of cannabis coverage: retirees, disabled workers and dependants — that is, anyone who isn’t going to a worksite — will be covered for any type of med- ical marijuana. Active employees, how- ever, are limited to cannabidiol oil with the lowest amount of THC, the psy- choactive ingredient in marijuana. Petroni says this approach ad- dresses employers’ fears “about our members showing up to work with THC in their system,” Petroni says. “And the way we explained it was if somebody shows up to work and they’d been drinking . . . they go home. If somebody shows up high, they go home. But if somebody shows up on painkillers, the employer doesn’t know they’re on painkillers and they continue to work and I would argue that’s more hazardous than (cannabidiol) oil with 0.7 (per cent) THC.” He also suggests the new coverage could save the plan money. Some members are taking medication for ir- ritable bowel syndrome costing $50,000 each year. If they were to switch to cannabis oil, that cost would drop to around $2,400 per year. The published report says the plan is implementing a $2,000 cap per member for the rest of 2017, and will revisit the limit in January 2018. Over the first year, it will also track how many members fill medical marijuana prescriptions and whether claims for opiates and other drugs fall, and will use the data to reassess the coverage. “Communities across North Amer- ica are struggling with overprescribed painkillers in excessively high doses that has lead to the opioid crisis,” Petroni said in a news release. “Our priority at LiUNA is health and safety, on and off the job site. Being at the forefront of medicinal cannabis care will minimize the health risks to our members and reinforce the organization’s responsibility to provide well trained, highly skilled construction craft workers.” QUEBEC Police find convicted Quebec construction boss Antonino Catania’s body in river: Foul play not suspected The former head of a Quebec con- struction firm who pleaded guilty to bribery charges earlier this month has been found dead near his home in Re- pentigny, CBC has reported. The body of Antonino Catania, 72, was found in L’Assomption River be- hind his home on Lacombe Blvd. by provincial police divers on July 4. Repentigny police spokesperson Guy Bélair said the body was retrieved 20 ft. from Catania’s home. Police do not suspect foul play. The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Summer 2017 – 35 NEWS BRIEFS Catania had been missing for a few hours when police were called by a member of his family Monday night, Bélair said. Police searched for him in and around his home. “Following the search, we realized he could be in the river,” Bélair said. Provincial police searched the river and found him. Catania previously ran Catcan En- treprises with his son Paolo. Earlier this month, the elder Catania pleaded guilty to charges of fraud amounting to more than $5,000, fraud on the government and breach of trust. He hadn’t been sentenced. CBC says Catania’s lawyer says the businessperson was in the advanced stages of cancer and was no longer re- sponding to chemotherapy. NEW BRUNSWICK CONSTRUCTION ACROSS CANADA Coun. John MacKenzie said he was not swayed by practices elsewhere or by concerns about higher prices. He said the city doesn’t have the kind of problems found with contractors in Quebec and Toronto. “Unless you’ve got reason to dis- trust somebody, then you give them the benefit of the doubt,” said MacKenzie. “If they break that trust, then you’ve got reason to say, ‘you know, we’re going to change the way we do business’.” Council approved the change by a six to three vote at the request of the Saint John branch of the New Brunswick Construction Association. NOVA SCOTIA Acrow Bridge partners with Canam-Bridges for twin bridge project Bidders to learn who is seeking St. John work after city changes rules Construction companies in Saint John, NB, will now know who else is going to bid on city jobs, CBC reports. A majority of councillors voted in May to toss out a contract tendering policy created in 2003 with direct help from Canada’s Competition Bureau to reduce the possibility of bid rigging. Under that policy, potential com- petitors could not learn which other companies picked up the tender doc- uments necessary to bid on a city con- tract. In future, the names of potential bidders will be publicly available. The change was made against the advice of city managers who fear it will lead to less competition and higher prices for the municipality. CBC News has reported the policy of keeping the “plan takers list” confi- dential is recommended practice, ac- cording to the City of Toronto’s auditor general, Beverly Romeo-Beehler. It was also a key recommendation of the Charbonneau Commission after a five-year investigation into corruption and bid rigging in Quebec’s construc- tion industry. Acrow Bridge says it has supplied a single lane bridge to Nova Scotia Transportation and Infrastructure Re- newal (NSTIR) for a detour during con- struction of a galvanized truss bridge in a neighboring location. The truss bridge is a joint project with Acrow and Canam-Bridges, a division of Canam Group Inc. The two existing bridges spanning the Roseway River near Shelburne both needed permanent replacement. It was decided to build the single lane “trail” bridge first so it could lessen a detour inconvenience to residents and tourists alike. The structure is 42.7 m. (140 ft.) long by 4.2 m. (13.5 ft.) wide. After use as a detour for vehicles and pedestrians, it will remain in place per- manently to carry pedestrians, eques- trians, mountain bikers, cross-country skiers and snowmobiles as part of the Shelburne County Rail Trail. 36 – Summer 2017 — The Canadian Design and Construction Report The Shelburne installation by Canam is the third permanent steel truss bridge to be installed in Nova Scotia in the past two years. The other two are located in Milton, NS, and over Nine Mile River in Hants County, NS. PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND Government, industry addressing construction workforce needs The Prince Edward Island (PEI) con- struction sector has immediate needs for 500 to 750 workers and as many as 1,800 workers will be needed over the next decade to keep pace with major projects, retirements and an upswing in the sector. In anticipation of the workforce de- mands, the PEI government has part- nered with the Construction Association of Prince Edward Island (CAPEI) to support new training and employment opportunities in PEI’s fast growing construction industry. “Non-residential investment in con- struction in PEI has the fastest growth among provinces and residential in- vestment in new homes and renova- tions saw an expansion of 5.2 per cent in 2016,” Premier Wade MacLauchlan said in a statement. “Acting now to boost the construction sector work- force will ensure that this growth will continue, while also connecting Is- landers to well paying jobs for the long term.” Government is providing funding support to the CAPEI to develop and implement a multi-faceted recruitment plan that will address identified needs. The challenges are part of a national trend outlined in the release of a na- tional study 2017-2026 Construction and Maintenance Looking Forward prepared by BuildForce Canada. “We have identified expansion of the workforce as one of the top priori- ties for the sector. Attracting and re- taining skilled workers will be essential to keep growing the island economy,” said CAPEI general manager Sam Sanderson. “To address this challenge, we will be working with government to identify innovative approaches to meet our workforce needs and to imple- ment a multi-faceted plan to attract workers to our industry.” Funding has also been renewed for the Trade HERizon’s initiative led by Women’s Network PEI. The project aims to increase the number of women in trades by promoting career options in trades like construction, through a mix of hands-on learning and classroom sessions. The initiative will support 20 women this year in preparation for trades related training and jobs. These initiatives are being sup- ported through funding from the PEI government through the Canada-PEI Labour Market Development Agree- ment and the Canada-PEI Job Fund Agreement. NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR Construction jobs disappear in Newfoundland and Labrador There’s disappointing news in the Newfoundland and Labrador construc- tion labour market, with Statistics Canada data indicating that 2,200 fewer people are working in the non- residential construction sector in New- foundland and Labrador than there were a year ago. Overall, the unemployment rate in Newfoundland and Labrador climbed to 14.9 per cent from May to June, with the disappearance of 1,400 jobs and nearly 12,000 fewer people are working than in June 2016. The province’s unemployment rate is well above the next highest — 10.2 per cent in Prince Edward Island — and more than double the national rate of 6.5 per cent. Statistics Canada analyst Andrew Fields said in a (CBC) report that the June increase in the unemployment rate may not be statistically significant but the year over year increase is. He said the biggest loss of jobs over the past 12 months has been in the construction of non-residential buildings and in wholesale busi- nesses.
