The Algo Centre Mall (legally Eastwood Mall since 2005 but almost never referred to as such) was a mall and hotel located on Highway 108 in Elliot Lake, Ontario, Canada. It was the largest commercial complex in the area. When the community was hit by uranium mine closures in the 1990s, the complex gradually refocused, hosting multiple services, such as a library, constituency offices, and public health offices. In the years leading up to 2012, many businesses located in the mall either closed or moved to outside locations. Still, the mall was a community hub, with most of the area's clothing stores and its largest grocery store, employing upwards of 250 local residents. It accounted for 10% of the community's retail space and 6% of the total wages. The mall was plagued by structural problems and leaks throughout its history. It underwent a partial structural failure on June 23, 2012, when a 12m x 24m (39'-by-79') segment of the rooftop parking deck collapsed into the building, crashing through the upper level lottery kiosk adjacent to the food court and escalators to the ground floor below. Two people died in the collapse and more than 20 people received non-life-threatening injuries. An investigation and class action lawsuits into the collapse are ongoing and the mall has been demolished. The city of Elliot Lake purchased the vacant former Algo Centre Mall site in 2019, as the first stage in redeveloping the land for new residential and commercial uses. Part of the site will be retained by the city as a municipal "community hub" project, while the rest of it will be sold back to residential and commercial developers. (en) |

The fact remains that there were many other professionals, engineers and architects who inspected the Algo Centre Mall in Elliot Lake, Ontario during the course of its operation who concluded, as Robert Wood did, that the mall was structurally sound. Although Dr. Saffarini found this surprising and even alarming, the fact remains that other professionals reached the same conclusion as Robert Wood did with respect to the condition of the mall. None of these professionals raised concerns that would lead anyone to conclude that the mall was unsafe. In his evidence, the Crown's lead expert, Dr. Hassan Saffarini testified that an engineer who saw the condition and level of corrosion in the Algo Centre Mall could have still reached the professional judgment that the mall was safe. Although this judgment would be "poor judgment", in the words of Dr. Saffarini, I conclude from the evidence of Dr. Saffarini that it would not be an act or omission that reflects an unrestrained disregard for the consequences. In other words, the actions do not elevate to a marked and substantial departure from what a reasonable engineer would do in the same circumstances. (en) |
