anyone that thinks the city is not likely to meet the goals wasn't around during the r2000 program developed in a collaboration between nrcan and chba. they need to increase the program's standards before 2000 because virtually every spec building in the country was building homes that met or exceeded the initial standards.
from my observations, the industry is more nimble and better educated - particularly when it comes to trades - today than it was then and so is the public. those that are leaders will still have to push if they're going to stay leaders because the industry as a whole is likely to catch up pretty quickly.
