Time is long overdue for the ON ministry now called Public & Business Service Delivery & Procurement to be held accountable for its ineffective oversight of Ontario's DAAs- #RECO, #Tarion, #HCRA, on & on. Where have those millions of $ related to DAA "oversight" gone since 2009?

There's lots of mainstream media attention these days to #RECO.

RECO is a DAA- like Tarion & HCRA.

Ontario's DAAs don't adequately protection consumers.

CPBH has been raising concerns about DAAs for many years. Here's a link to a presentation:

Almost 50 yrs of complaints about the organization now called Tarion.

In the Wynne era:
➡️there were Tarion whistleblowers
➡️the Cunningham Review calling for the end of Tarion's monopoly.

What's it going to take for the Ford Govt to deal with the Tarion problem?

Thank you again, Natural Resources Canada!

Considering a newly built home in Ontario?

Tarion & HCRA are Delegated Administrative Authorities (DAAs) that are supposed to be providing consumer protection. The costs of these DAAs increase the cost of housing in ON.

Before the 2018 ON election, the Ontario PC Party supported ending Tarion's monopoly. But after it was elected, the Ford gov't changed its mind.

Why are Ontario's new home purchasers still stuck with monopoly Tarion, Min. Stephen Crawford?

We recently received notice from the LAT of a continuation of a public hearing.

Dear Min. Stephen Crawford - you have an opportunity to address Home Construction Regulatory Authority (HCRA) board issues.

The person holding the board chair position is key. Current Chair, Mr. Young, has been another disappointment, following Ms. Rappolt's disappointing performance.

What does this tell you about HCRA?

ON's Delegated Administrative Authority model does not protect consumers adequately.

eg: Have you been following the RECO scandal, the HCRA scandal or what's been allowed to go on with Tarion for almost 50 years?

Real estate broker Nina Deeb raises an excellent question!

Given the length of time scheduled for this public hearing, it looks like there are probably many issues.

We get feedback from observers that even tuning in for a few hours is typically eye-opening.

CPBH sends our best wishes to Sohaila Sue Hemati!

CPBH volunteers recently met with an official in the Canadian Federal Government & provided this feedback re the full delivery chain and factory-built housing.

Please take the lead on this @gregorrobertson.bsky.social .

Tarion's homeowner survey asks mostly softball questions. Then Tarion execs/board flaunt the results as a measure of how great Tarion is.

The ministry that forces Tarion to pay it for "oversight" (Public and Business Service Delivery) allows this survey to continue.

This is an on-line public hearing involving an Ontario new home purchaser and the mandatory monopoly Tarion.

Over on LinkedIn, Tarion is boasting about another award as a top employer.

Meanwhile, many new home purchasers are highly dissatisfied with Tarion’s services.

Most of Tarion’s funding comes from mandatory payments from new home purchasers.

This happens far too often. The public needs to be informed.

The Ministry Public and Business Service Delivery gets paid to oversee HCRA. Why is it allowing this to continue?

Is it any wonder that homeowners are confused about how Tarion handles project management fees?

Where's the transparency and accountability from Tarion?

And what's Tarion's relationship with Burkes Restoration?
