Assuming you are talking about the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation, I fail to see how an organization that only sells mortgage insurance gets any benefit from preventing sprinklers in homes. If you are saying their data is incorrect, please provide the evidence.

That's true, and as opposed to the NFPA that has always been a corrupt organization, an agent of the fire sprinkler manufacturers, as Steveray said above:

Conarb, regarding the Minneapolis code hearing, many building officials from Massachusetts went to that hearing and also reported back on the "joke" of that vote. As I recall, for many years afterwards, that issue has come up at following ICC sessions; trying to figure out a way to prevent it from happening again.
