        while back.  Wow, what a flurry of responses! In Ontario, it is
        indeed possible to place a powder room under a staircase,
        provided that ventilation, headroom and egress criteria are met.
        It certainly took some effort to find this out (and to convince
        the designer) but it is now in the plans. <br>
