The Spring 2026 issue of Ontario Home Builder is here! This issue explores the policy shifts, pressures and innovations shaping our industry today. Our cover story examines proposed changes to Ontario’s conservation authority system and whether a consolidated map could streamline approvals—or create new delays. We also share candid insights from builders in our “What Keeps You Up at Night?” survey, and look at how growing competition for electrical grid capacity could impact future housing development. Plus: renovation strategies from building science expert Trevor Trainor, the latest product trends, key industry updates and a look at Niagara HBA’s work across 13 municipalities.
