How's Canadian fire code read regarding using non-Listed panels for
smoke detection?  NFPA72 specifically forbids using non-Listed
equipment for any type of fire alarm detecting or reporting.  Per
NFPS72, you'd also need to have a smoke above the control panel that
would have been quite effective in preventing the building from
burning down.  Good thing this didn't happen in the middle of the
night.
