Effective 07-05 ALL drawings submitted for permits in Ontario Canada must be
professionally designed, i.e., either an arch or PEng. No exceptions, from
smallest garage to ???
Current code states that only buildings over 5000 square feet or for
commercial use must be stamped but this changed surprised even me.

Holy crap, that is restrictive. I can see where a house or commercial
building should have real engineering, but how much can you pay to have a 10
x 10 shed designed?

That sucks for homeowners. You should see the crude
sketches I got approved here in NJ. They went right
thru the first time! I was shocked. I just called
it an "alteraton" instead of an addition and had no
problemo.
