We should look into that before we come up with new codes and knock everything down.
The second question is this. In talking about the codes, we can present them to new builders as a way of saving money. I remember in my time—I built a home in 2000—geothermal was just coming into the picture. The first quote to do my home was $39,000 brand new. There weren't many companies doing it. Halfway through, they came back with a $60,000 quote. I knew where it was going. I knew if I retained them to do geothermal brand new, it was going to be $100,000. I didn't do it because I did the cost analysis and I was only going to get my $100,000 back in 25 to 30 years.
Now we have new codes for new buildings—some 25% of the building stock, and 75% of the existing homes in our country. However, with the aging population in our country, are those people able to renovate those homes? When it comes down to implementing those codes, it's the municipality. It's not even the province or territory. They can funnel it down to municipalities. If you go to get a permit for an extension, a lot of people don't even get permits for renovations and nobody knows what they're doing. For a roof, you don't need a permit.
How do we go forward? Do we have funding in place? Do we have subsidies? Do we have grants? How do you encourage people to renovate those homes up to the new codes?
