Looking at the Ontario building code I don't see anything regarding snow build up or drifts, do they just default to following the NBC?

Also I won't mention how long it took me to find "MMAH Supplementary Standard SB-1, "Climatic and Seismic Data".

2012 is the latest OBC I have... see 4.1.6 and also used the NBCC...

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Feel any better?

You need to look at the NBCC Structural Commentaries.
 
Thanks, I figured it was the same as the commentaries for the NBC but since Ontario has it's own code I was a little thrown off that they wouldn't at least mention referencing the NBC or have it's own commentaries.
