I'm on the tools right now in fact I do office renos and to move a plug 6" to the left I need a permit and inspection. The same goes for residential.
The code is suggestive yes but its also a legal document.
FYI this is from city of Edmonton website.

All new electrical installations require a permit, such as:

Renovations/alterations
Basement developments
Hot tub installations

Any additions to an electrical system, adding new circuits/wiring for receptacles and/or lighting, repair/replacement of aluminum wiring and garden shed wiring to name a few.

Not saying it doesn't happen from time to time but its a big slap to the bank account if you get caught without one.
