Any company hoping to get involved in rebuilding Fort McMurray will have their work history - and any outstanding fines - posted online by the province to help residents avoid being duped by shady or incompetent builders.

Municipal Affairs Minister Danielle Larivee said during a Wednesday afternoon press conference that construction companies doing work on homes will have to complete a “builder declaration” before they can apply for a building permit.

The initial cost for the province to fight last month’s massive fire in Fort McMurray was $615 million, Alberta Municipal Affairs Minister Danielle Larivee revealed for the first time on Friday. 

It was the first time the province has attached any specific amount to fire fighting and evacuation costs. 

The figure does not include the loss of revenue from the break in oil sands production, loss of royalty revenue and the cost of the cleanup. It also doesn’t include the cost of property loss, which is expected to be in the billions.
