win.door Fenestration Canada holds annual meeting in Winnipeg Canadian Design and Construction Report staff writer Fenestration Canada held its annual general meeting June 12 to 14 in Win- nipeg. Described as a ‘crossroads of cul- ture, commerce and tourism,' in part because the city has one of the largest French-speaking communities outside Quebec, Winnipeg is also home to a large number of window and door manufacturers. The event program included busi- ness sessions and technical updates. The President’s Reception and Sup- plier’s Showcase provided registrants the opportunity to display their prod- ucts before the dinner. A presentation on NAFS-08 re- viewed code related case studies for interpretation, education and clarifica- tion. It also demonstrated how mem- bers can work with Fenestration Canada to resolve issues. “The National Energy Code for Buildings was published in 2011; British Columbia will be the first province to implement this code,” a Fenestration Canada news release re- ports. “Ontario has had its own energy code, SB10, for building in place for several years now. While these codes apply to commercial fenestration products they will also apply to resi- dential products being used in part five buildings where these codes apply. This presentation will review the National and Ontario codes and look at how they impact all fenestration manufacturers.” There were opportunities to net- work and socialize. From an opening evening at Fort Gibraltar to a compan- ion program featuring a World War II Spy and Hermetic Code Tour as well as the opportunity to participate in the Fenestration Manitoba Golf Tourna- ment, guests had the chance to meet with old and new friends.
