1/I am really upset at pic emerging wrt massive (& dangerous) overstepping of BC's Provincial Health Officer (#bonniehenry) & regional MHOs into building engineering, a legally regulated engineering practice in which they have no training or license to practice

#COVIDisAirborne
2/ To recap, building engineering is a regulated practice. The application of ASHRAE technical standards and guidance = building engineering. Only appropriate P.Engs can practice building engineering.

3/ Any regulated engineering work MUST be backed by a Responsible Engineer / Engineer of Record. There must be a paper trail ("Authenticated Documents") of work product and assurance that underpins engineering advice relied on by others.

4/ It now appears that the #bcpoli Provincial Health Officer Dr #bonniehenry is dangerously and, I believe, illegally, providing building engineering advice that underpins @worksafeBC #COVID19 safety:

5/ It appears #bcpoli PHO Dr #bonniehenry &/or @VCHhealthcare MHOs have dangerously and, I believe, illegally provided building engineering advice to @VSB39, endangering & causing mass infection of children with #COVID19. I filed a complaint to @egbc I hope to make public soon.
6/ Here is additional correspondence in which it appears a @VCHhealthcare Medical Health Officer is practicing building engineering without a license, with a potential increase in risk of #COVID19 infection to children attending @vsb39.
#CovidIsAirborne

7/ Here is evidence from Alberta public health officials (same ones probably illegally practicing building engineering) AND #bcpoli knew that #COVIDisAirborne and that masks, improved ventilation, and air filtration would protect school children.
8/ I want the amazing mechanical & building engineers I know involved in making my children's school safe. I want them involved in making your workplace safe. I do not want doctors practicing building engineering 😱
9/ I also want those Professional Engineers & organizations holding Firm Permits who did NOT uphold code of ethics to hold public health & safety paramount held to account.

Without that. building & infrastructure safety becomes anarchy and a P.Eng will mean nothing.

Hi! This is my first tweet official tweet. I figured it was worth dusting off this as yet unused account (too much to do, too little time) for something this important.

Tl:dr - I'm asking you to please support this #bced cause:

So, like many parents (& grandparents & teachers & so many others), I've been calling repeatedly for scientifically-sound COVID mitigation measures in BC schools. As a former practicing engineer, I'm stunned at the exclusion of Professional Engineers from school safety plans.
It seems straightforward. The application of ASHRAE guidance requires the skills & responsibility of Professional Engineers (mechanical / building). I spoke with consulting engineering colleagues. They have many commercial clients who are indeed retaining them to
