The True North strong and free?

A 92 year old guy builds a house, by all accounts better than you can get in the suburbs, and they want to throw him in prison and bulldoze the house. What are the repercussions to the bureaucrat that demand all of this? Mandatory negotiations with the home owner ordered by a judge that executed some common sense. Don't forget the demands of the building inspector were all legitimate and legal, and the judge could have ruled the other way. The only saving grace the old duffer had was his age, if he had been 38 I would lay money he would not have received the same ruling.
