The timing of this book is not coincidental.

Canada’s federal government is significantly ramping up housing starts. More homes are being built faster, by a workforce already stretched thin and under a fragmented regulatory framework that has been ineffective for decades.

These facts are on the public record.

		British Columbia’s “leaky condo crisis”, leading to more than $4 billion in repairs, was studied, issues identified, but many of the issues continue to repeat in different parts of Canada.
		Quebec’s defective concrete disaster impacted several thousand homes. Homeowner suffering continues to this day.
		A 2025 audit of Ontario’s home construction regulatory authority found ongoing issues with the competency requirements for approved builders.
		A Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation official recently stated publicly that it is almost impossible to find out how frequently new home construction goes wrong in Canada.

The government is building more. The evidence shows that the quality controls are ineffective. This book makes that case with 22 years of documented evidence and the human stories to match.
