Ontario's Ministry of Labour is investigating after a worker died when a wall of a home under construction in Ottawa's rural south-west collapsed on him earlier this week. Police and paramedics were called to a construction site on Westar Farm Way, near Flewellyn and Dwyer Hill roads, around 3:45 p.m. Monday. The man was treated for life-threatening injuries at the scene scene and later died, paramedics told CBC. In an email to CBC, the ministry said the man was working for a subcontractor, Bacic Forming Concrete Ltd., at a site for builder Grizzly Homes. The ministry initially issued one order and one requirement to Grizzly Homes, plus a separate requirement to the subcontractor.
