Asbestos in 1988 home?

My house was built in 1988-89. I would like to replace the original ceramic tile laid over a concrete slab. What are the chances that there is asbestos in that floor / subfloor? Either in concrete, or thinset mortar, or grout, or maybe the tile itself.

This is Ottawa, btw.

Built in 1988? I'd say there's a .000001% chance there'd be any asbestos in there.

If there is, somebody messed up.
