This episode marks the final installment of the Safety Corner series.

Let it be made unequivocally clear: no one speaks on behalf of Manny or dictates what can or cannot be said on The Construction Life Podcast or any affiliated platform. Any attempt to misrepresent, control, or speak for Manny will result in immediate and irreversible changes.

This is non-negotiable.

With a dose of political frustration—and a half-joking, half-serious conversation about building our own islands in international waters just to escape the red tape of construction in Canada.

But the tone quickly shifts as we turn our attention to the devastating recent earthquake in Myanmar, where we reflect on the tragic loss of life and the critical importance of structural integrity in construction. Plus there was a fatality with a hydra worker and we share what we know about that situation.

We dive into: 🔹 The idea of building outside the system—what would it take to construct a sovereign, floating platform? 🔹 Videos of the Myanmar earthquake aftermath—analyzing how and why certain structures collapsed 🔹 The harsh realities of poor building standards, lack of enforcement, and the human cost 🔹 The responsibility of builders, engineers, and governments to do better when lives are at stake

This episode is a mix of provocative ideas, hard truths, and sobering reminders that construction is never just about building—it’s about protecting lives.

🎧 Tune in for bold talk, global perspective, and a wake-up call to build smarter and safer.
