Nick,
I find it hard to believe that he is the best you could come up with.

Ray, there is a Sicilian proverb you need to learn.

Like Wolf said, is this the best you can come up with? A keynote speaker from a competiting association that has defiled, defamed and slandered NACHI and its members on a repeated basis. He has no business speaking to anyone, least of all NACHI members, the very ones he has claimed to be substantard, inferior, pretenders....

Nice!

Nick,
In addition to Ray's comments above, my question is, why anyone should have to pay to attend a convention in order to find out everything they ever wanted to know about the National Certification? The information should have been available to all HI's across the contry from the moment it was released. That was a basic requirement to the best of my understanding.

It seems Nick is going to do what is right for Nick and not the members.

Run, silent, run deep eh Nick?

I suppose it is not beyond reason for Nick to invite Bill Mullen to the supposed meeting with Ontario government officials either. BTW Nick are you going to tell us who you are meeting with or are you going to fake your way through that one too?

You complain because you can't get information out of Bill, then when he agrees to stand in front of you in person for 2 hours at our convention answering your questions, you complain about that. How can the poor fella win with you all?

You asking Bill to be a keynote speaker is akin to putting the Fox in the Chicken coop. Another executive decision no doubt without any manner of consultation by you of the members.

Do you really trust Bill Mullen to keep what he learns to himself? I don't and I am not alone.

Thanks.

I guess you do not know too much about Bill Mullen Might be a good idea .
This has been going on for many years please do not make us out to be the bad guys . Bill has called me and others some very nasty words , this I can take but when I and others are called a fXXXing Liar.
This just sort of makes me a bit upset as I always strive to never lie .
It would be so nice if Bill Mullen was that way.
Now you say he is going to give us information well wiptydoo it is about time he has been bragging about this for over two years about how he was going to put that FXXXING Nick and those NACHOES out of Canada.
We have pleaded asked nicely and we still do not know who the self appointed group is .
They tell us the government wants them only and is giving them so much money well I find out it is not near the amount Bill is trying to tell.
This is shamefull for the Canadian Home inspectors to be treated this way .
He spoke at Kingston 2 years ago and has given no information to the non CAPHI home inspectors since that I know of .
Remember NICK we are your friend and have supported you from the get go .
I also realize you have supported us also from the get go .
Bill Mullen has tried to destroy Me and NACHI non stop .
I do hope this can lead to a communication between all home inspectors in Canada .

I listened to Bill at one of the first NACHI meetings I think it was Bellville explaining this same topic. That was enough for me. Doug

Nick, with all due respect, it does seem unfair to offer the chance to hear information from Mr. Mullen, at a fee, when that information should have been made available to all Canadian H.I.'s free of charge some years ago.

It seems that you are inserting yourself into a situation that you do not fully understand and that is very dangerous for the future of N.A.C.H.I. in Canada.

"Keep your friends close. Keep your enemies closer."

Unfortunately, while that proverb had some credence in days gone by, as we are now finding out in Afghanistan and Iraq, keeping an enemy who is determined to destroy you, close, is proving to be very dangerous.

To all my fellow Canadian Nachi HI.


This National Certification is going to happen. Have any of you thought for a minute that Nick might just be trying to help us.Making sure that we as NACHI members get a fair chance at this. I say we give Nick a break.He knows what he's doing.

The only thing I'm pissed about is I paid full price for the convention $399 and $50 for my wife.

Mario:

IMHO this National Certification has about a 85% chance of happening with NACHI support, a 30% chance of happening without NACHI support and about a 2% chance of happening with NACHI resistance.

George:

Read my words carefully (I chose them carefully) in the first post of this thread. I consider Bill Mullen a friend, not an enemy. Everyone is free to call 'em as they see 'em... just like I have.
