Kerry and Jordan discuss ICBA’s online ladder safety course, plus upcoming webinars this week:

Tomorrow, Wednesday, April 29, at 10AM, we host Rebuilding BC: Real Estate and Construction in the COVID-19 World with Bob Rennie and Andrew Ramlo.

Understanding the dynamics and complexities of real estate and development in Vancouver is challenging at the best of times. Now, COVID-19 is destroying jobs, investment and opportunity with a ferocity not seen in generations. Conventional models have been upended so where to turn? As we press the “reset” button on everything, it’s time for new thinking and a fresh perspective on where real estate and construction are moving as markets digest the implications of living and working with COVID-19. icba.ca/webinars

On Thursday, April 30, at noon, we host Guidance for Construction Sites Operating During COVID-19 with a legal team from Clark Wilson. We are fortunate in B.C. that construction work has been deemed an essential service during COVID-19. Projects can proceed but under new guidelines mandated by the Provincial Health Officer. In this webinar we will consider the new regime under which construction projects are permitted to operate, the impact on trade contractors, and the contractual issues that have arisen as a result. icba.ca/webinars
