Residential Construction Builder Licensing

Good day Brothers and Sisters

Here is a survey that is being circulated by the Alberta Government regarding residential construction. For the most part this doesn’t affect our members. However with the movement to multi home buildings and the changes to the Canadian building code our commercial sector is gaining more work in this industry.

This is an opportunity for our members to send a message about proper licensing for builders in Alberta and also speak to the need for certified trade’s people to be used in building both single and multi-family homes in Alberta. If proper rules are put in place for builders it is more likely proper tradespeople will be used making this industry safer and could result in work for members of Local 110.

I ask that you take the time to fill out this survey at the link below and focus as much as possible on safety and certification.

Thank you, in solidarity
