Long-Term Infrastructure Planning in Ontario
Infrastructure spending (typically over spending) has been a topic of many discussions in Ontario, especially during political periods. In this Daily Commercial News article, the author does a nice job at highlighting the need for change, particularly transparency, innovation, and alignment with other government programs when the province procures and initiates infrastructure projects. It’s recommended that the province takes Infrastructure Ontario’s (IO) approach with their alternative financing & procurement model and apply it to projects less than $100 million dollars because traditionally it’s only applied to projects exceeding this number. Typically, public-private-partnerships (P3) are formed to undertake large infrastructure projects, but with the success that IO has had with the completion these projects, couldn’t it be applied to projects of a smaller scale? I agree with the author on asking such questions to better align Ontario’s infrastructure plans with what is actually getting built and the dollars being spent.

Barriers Against Air Leakage
Great publication about best practices for building envelope design, construction and maintenance. This is an awesome reference tool for industry professionals interested in envelope/barrier standards and different ways to protect and design for certain products and/or environments. Curtain wall assemblies, EIFS and ICF walls are all discussed in this publication. See the link below, or check it out at Construction Canada.

Barrier Free Design in Canada
Barrier free design is an ever increasing area in the construction industry that must be addressed on every project. The need for improved standards and uniform compliance across Canada is crucial moving forward and the article from Construction Canada does a great job at explaining the overall need for barrier free compliance and also the differences across Canada. Barrier free means accessibility for all, from the exterior of a space to the interior and each room within. We must keep barrier free at the forefront of our everyday lives and continue to think about the ways it imprints a positive path for you and others around you. https://www.constructioncanada.net/simplifying-barrier-free-design-across-canada/ via Construction Canada
Ontario & Infrastructure Spending
Some interesting stats regarding Ontarians and how they feel about the Government’s infrastructure spending and cost of construction. A portion of the population thinks that the cost of infrastructure construction is too high suggesting that the Government needs to improve procurement methods, contractor selection, competitiveness, and how we’re making the pre-qualification criteria and scopes of work. Ontarians interviewed suggest that we need explanations on why spending and costs are what they are, because as tax payers, we’re ultimately paying for these projects. What do you think about government infrastructure spending and the cost of construction? http://www.on-sitemag.com/infrastructure/ontarians-fed-wasted-public-infrastructure-dollars/1003957105/ via On-Site
