Let's alter provincial Building Code to allow taller public buildings to be built using a local renewable resource : wood

Improvements in laminating smaller wood together into bigger strong beams has allowed many states and provinces to safely and routinely build the structures of six storey buildings entirely out of local renewable wood.


Quebec is now working on buildings as tall as 11 storeys using only wood for its superstructure.

For me, its all about Green Jobs : jobs, jobs, jobs !

As Greens we have to petition the McNeil Liberal government to rise up off the sofa and start the changes needed to put laid off forestry industry employees back to work , using a native renewable resource to build our schools, hospitals and offices...
