Henry's Law Saskatchewan
On May 5, 2026, the Minister of Government Relations introduced Henry’s Law, an amendment to the National Building Code. This amendment requires all residential suites in Saskatchewan, regardless of their location in the building, to have a carbon monoxide (CO) alarm installed. The enhanced regulations are named in honour of Henry Losco, who passed away from carbon monoxide poisoning in Regina in December 2025.
Henry’s Law will require CO alarms in all multi-unit residential buildings consisting of apartments, condominiums, houses with secondary suites and all other buildings with multiple residential suites by November 1, 2026, regardless of when the building was initially built or last renovated.
Pleas visit the following links to learn more about Henry's Law and ways to protect yourself. As always if you have any questions please contact your municipality, SaskEnergy, or Building and Technical Standards Saskatchewan.
