Roney Engineering in the news...
Chris Roney, P.Eng. represented Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO) at the roundtable sessions at the Elliot Lake Inquiry into the collapse of the Algo Centre Mall and was instrumental in the drafting of PEO's recommendations, almost all of which were adopted by the commission
Elliot Lake Inquiry
Chris Roney was recently inducted as the President of Engineers Canada at its AGM in Charlottetown, PEI. Engineers Canada is the national organization of the 12 engineering regulators that license the country's 280,000 members of the profession. Together, we work to advance the profession in the public interest.
Chris was featured in the May 20th Globe & Mail (page EC4) and in the June 7th Kingston Whig Standard. The articles outline his career and ascendancy to the leadership of the engineering profession in Canada
The Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing has released its final report of the Building Safety Technical Advisory Panel (BSTAP)
Engineers Canada President and former PEO Councillor Chris Roney, P.Eng., was one of the panel members. Following the recommendations from the Elliot Lake Commission of Inquiry, BSTAP was established in March 2015. It was tasked with providing advice on enhancing the safety of existing buildings in Ontario.
“This report flowed from Belanger recommendation 1.16 and ties in with PEO’s work regarding structural engineering specialists and structural adequacy reports,” said Mr. Roney. “The key message for the policy makers is the fact that PEO and its professional engineers have lent their expertise to assist the government in coming up with pragmatic solutions to public problems. It reinforces that we are there as trusted partners."
Defining oneself as a P.Eng. is a point of pride for thousands of individuals across Canada. This article provides a sampling of PEO members, including Chris Roney, and those on the path to licensure who speak out about what the P.Eng. designation means to them and why they value it.
